The frances peacoat
layering up
to repel the elements
Using a classic menswear block, we have created a unique pattern and made a woman’s peacoat taking into consideration the balance and proportions which are synonymous with this cropped sailors jacket.
We have also paid attention to the finer details such as the half-back at the small of the back and the hand warmer pockets.
The cloth would have historically been peacoating, a felted wool which kept sailors dry and warm. Saffron Darby plumped for a Melton cloth from Abraham Moon & Sons.
The Frances Peacoat is available to order in a choice of cloth and colour.
