Poiret is celebrated for liberating women from the confines of 19th-century corsets, even though he introduced extremely narrow skirt hems in his designs, and for modernising the Victorian silhouette. In Poiret's own words, \"I like a plain gown, cut from light and supple fabric, which falls from the shoulders to the feet in long, straight folds, like thick liquid, just touching the outline of the figure and throwing shadow and light over the moving form.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe fully-lined Cocoon Coat was originally crafted between 1913 and 1919. This pattern features batwing sleeves, a one-piece front\/back body, a neckband, and a hobble skirt, embodying a timeless style that looks equally stunning when paired with a simple T-shirt and leggings as it does when worn over evening attire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to the Cocoon Coat, they offer a pattern for a Reticule, a drawstring bag typical of the same period. This easy-to-sew pouch is fastened with decorative cording and adorned with a tassel that gracefully dangles from the bottom, capturing the elegance and charm of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Fabric\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor the coat: Medium to heavyweight fabrics with drape such as, velvet, silk charmeuse, heavy viscose or jersey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor reticule: Same fabric as the coat, also satin and blends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor linings: Satin or blends with similar drape and weight to outer fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCoat: Thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e1 yd (91cm) of 45″ (115cm) wide lightweight woven interfacing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e3 1\/2 yd (3.2m) of medium-gauge cotton cable cord and 1 yd (91cm) of fabric for piping, or 3 1\/2 yd (3.2m) of pre-made piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e5 yd (4.57m) of 1″ (2.5cm) wide flexible decorative ribbon to finish inside edges of coat (stiff ribbons such as grosgrain are not suitable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e24″ (61cm) of chain weight for hem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e1x decorative button, 1 1\/4″ (3.2cm) diameter, or one frog closure.\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReticule:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e2 yd (1.83m) of decorative cording for ties; one pre-made decorative tassel, approx. 7″ (18cm) long\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Croft Mill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53519107653964,"sku":"503","price":17.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0937\/8355\/6428\/files\/folkwear_patterns_poiret_cocoon_coat_1.jpg?v=1761090309","url":"https:\/\/www.croftmill.fr\/products\/folkwear-poiret-cocoon-coat-sewing-pattern-xs-l","provider":"Croft Mill","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
