Description
here's the current state of my pirate jacket. It is officially done, but I still want to add more to it. From the pictures that I posted earlier, I've added pockets, buttons, trim on the sleeves and bottom. this is what I looked like at the cotillion dance, except without the fancy back patter like on other pictures... oh and the camo pants
This is my favorite coat so far, it's light weight, not to warm (being one layer of denim), green, has a dandy floral theme and it's a pirate jacket! yay!
if anyone knows what time period specifically a jacket like this would belong, let me know eh

Greetings! This was made before I knew how to do patternmaking. I used Simplicity #4923. You can find these at local sewing stores or online.

How much would one of these cost? Can you do a custom one(i.e differnt colors and big floppy collar)?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hmmm I don't know how much one would cost. For one thing, this isn't actually something of my design, it's just a comercial pattern that I used to make the jacket. But I think it would be... $100-200

Nice!
to your question: I think a jacket like this could fit into the socalled "golden age of pirates" which is something between 1530 and 1650 (sometimes till 1700)

omg this is awesome. A great cut and design. Perfect choice of fancy trim on the waist etc. It is ultra cool to have an incredible belt and great boots to match the quality of this jacket.

Aye Matie! Indeed, iss my favorite one it is

I would be proud too, I have a pretty sweet pirate outfit that I've pieced together, but I didn't actually sew it, all except one peasant blouse I use, and I know how much more proud I would be if I did. Corsets are hard to sew though >.< I need sewing lessons or something.

As far as time period goes it is maybe 1750-1770. however, you've mixed and matched a bit so it's pretty hard to pin down. The cuffs and longer skirt suggest an earlier period like 1750 or ever 1740 but the lack of collar sets it apart...

That is an incredibly marvelous jacket.
The wide range of work in your gallery is impressive.
