Misses' Extra Small to Extra Large.
This fully-lined Cocoon Coat sewing pattern is based on a design of Paul Poiret, a renowned early 20th century fashion designer. It is Poiret who is remembered for freeing women from the 19th century corsets (although he then hobbled them with extremely narrow skirt hems) and for modernizing the Victorian silhouette. As the Parisian Designer explained, "I like a plain gown, cut from light and supple fabric, which falls from the shoulders to the feet in long, straight folds, like thick liquid, just touching the outline of the figure and throwing shadow and light over the moving form"
The fully-lined Cocoon Coat offered here was first designed around 1913-1919.
