Patterned and designed by Martha Palaza
Assistant Professor of Fashion Design at Fisher College Boston, MA.
The design was inspired by the work of Armani and Max Mara.
(The 8/07 Burda issue has a pattern for a double collar jacket of which I used as a reference for construction.)
I think I say this for everyone... WOW! Thank you for sharing, Martha! Show us more!

Corinne, a familiar face around here at SBDF, stopped by the shop the other day with 2 jackets she created from vintage Vogue patterns.
She was kind enough to let me photograph them to share with you, too bad I couldn't persuade her to model them for me!
The fabrics are:
Pumpkin Patch (brown) wool 2 tone herringbone from Italy with Braveheart buttons
Watermelon Supreme (pink) -double cloth 75% wool/25% cashmere from Italy with Locket buttons
This was Corinne's first attempt at bound button holes. Stunning work Corinne! Thanks so much for sharing!

I wore the outfit to my ASG New Jersey Annual chapter meeting. Many members asked where I had purchased the fabric- it is such a wonderful quality.
Thanks for finding and sending swatches of such interesting, beautiful, quality fabrics. You are providing a unique service for all of us who love sewing.
Sincerely,
Vivian M
