The first real "Tails"!
In the 1820s, when tailors added a dart to the waist of the cutaway frock coat, "Tails" were born. Our easy-to-use pattern for the Men's Dress Coat of the 1820s features the narrow cuffs and skirts, cut-away front, and fold-over collar that make this style stand out.
Fits chests 34" to 54". All sizes in one envelope.
Also included are assembly instructions, embellishment suggestions, and the extensive historical notes you've come to expect from Reconstructing History.
