Welcome and thank you for purchasing the ProfessionalED Course on Patterning Bespoke Jackets.
What makes the jacket the most challenging of the three pattern drafts offered through ABTA Workshops is the addition of sleeves and collars. The arm syce of the jacket is used to measure and draft the sleeve. Similarly, the break line, gorge, and shoulder are used to draft the collar. So accuracy and precision are important to ensure the collar and sleeves work in harmony with the jacket.
In this course, Marlene Franke, Savile Row trained tailor and founder of the American Bespoke Tailoring Academy, will guide you step-by-step through the process of drafting a single-breasted gentlemen's jacket and the accompanying sleeve and collar patterns.
