This page includes the back, and the back sleeve. (There are 4 additional pieces for the lining, but I didn't get a chance to complete them. I can add them later if wanted.) |

I have also been looking for fabric similar to that of the coat. This is from a fabric feature in a 1936 Vogue Pattern Magazine, which indicates that special effects could be achieved with hand woven wool fabrics. This fabric has stripes of color in which the warp has not been caught into the weave, leaving the threads free. From this illustration, I would suspect that handloomed specialty fabric of this sort would be relatively expensive. "Handloomed effects suggest a continuation of the peasant influence. A light wool with irregular stripes - Gardiner." -- "For Early Fall." Vogue Pattern Book (v.11, no.6), August-September, 1936, p. 37. |
