About Nancy blazer:
Nancy is a cropped semi-fitted double-breasted blazer with a straight silhouette. The fit is created with the help of bust and waist darts on the front bodice. The back bodice has waist and shoulder darts, and a center back seam. Nancy has a classic blazer-style collar with a stand, the edges of the collar are rectangular, and the lapels have pointed edges. There is a non-functional breast welt pocket on the left side of the front bodice featuring a decorative flap with a folded pocket square look. The back has two decorative tabs of a trapezoid shape. These tabs are inserted into the side seams and fasten with buttons and buttonholes (they can be used to add a more fitted look to the silhouette). Nancy features long two-piece set-in sleeves, and fastens with buttons. The blazer is fully lined and is 3–4 cm (1 1/8”-1 5/8”) below the waistline in length.
Approximate sewing time: 2,5 days. Model Larisa Bust 85cm (33 1/2”), Waist 64cm (25 1/4’”), Hip 93cm (36 5/8”), Height 172cm (5’62). Larisa is wearing size 36, height 3.
