Sewing pattern tutorial: How to sew the Marcello coat?
MARCELLO slips on like a borrowed man's coat, but its belted fit creates an infinitely feminine look. A mid-length, collarless coat with a belted waist, the neckline gently curves up the neck.
Its buttonless construction emphasizes a relaxed but confident look, with sophisticated cutwork on the shoulder and back.
The apparent simplicity of the cut hides an elaboration and details that make the MARCELLO pattern a gem: the 3-part sleeve, with a dart on the shoulder, the large piped pockets, the dart that draws the neckline and the cutout of the back in a swallow profile, the common thread of the L'Avventura collection , are the signature elements of this timeless piece of the hand-sewn wardrobe.
