Sew a jacket with a crossover front yourself

The double fastening – inside and out – provides security, keeping everything exactly where it belongs. This way, nothing can slip, and you look perfectly styled all day long.
Jacket with bust darts for the perfect fit

The relaxed width through the body also provides freedom of movement and that great feeling of being dressed in a loose and casual way.
