Pattern Puzzle - Erte Inspired Design

This weeks #PatternPuzzle was about targeting another of my favourite Erte designs and bringing this inspiration up-to-date.  As it turns out this is a truly challenging style.  I know I made at least two mistakes in putting these pattern making instructions together.  So please forgive any other errors you may find.  And because of it's complexity, I imagine I would have to produce at least 2-3 toiles/muslins to really get the design and fit to work well before attempting final cloth.

Pattern Puzzle - The Erté Jacket

My first introduction to Erte was the year after leaving fashion college when my Dad gave me a copy of this book for Christmas.  I was such a pattern making novice at the time, I had no idea how I would ever achieve such challenging designs.

You'll find all the pattern making detail on the website blog.
