My first thoughts of a fur coat is often associated with a vision of a elegant dress or pant suit underneath. But Marie Claire shows a different perspective in it's August 2015 issue. The colors are bold and beautiful.
Fur and denim is a great weekend outfit.
This second look is so 70's. The shoulder wide collar, the over the knee boots, and the fringed purse. I couldn't do the short, shorts though.
These jackets also remind my of the 70's. Cute, but a little to youthful for me.
In my Mood Fabric stash, I have a yardage of faux fur that would be a great for a faux fur project this fall.
I'm thinking of using Burda Magazine, October 2008, coat 101 style.
Happy Sewing!

ReplyDeleteThanks, Nancy K.
DeleteThis is going to be fun!!!
ReplyDeleteYes it is.
DeleteI have to admit that I love the top "muppet" coat. All of you posting about it are converting me. But, I think I'm too big for it. I can't WAIT to see what you do!
ReplyDeleteMe too, Rebecca.i picked the short hair faux fur for the same reason you mentioned. I will see how this one goes before considering something more audacious.
DeleteI look forward to seeing this faux fur sewn. I am sure it will be gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Linda. I hoping for good results.
DeleteExcellent choice and perfect for your Chicago winters!
