Vogue 9352, the ‘Duster Coat’ is one of my favorite layering pieces, an unlined cross between a jacket, a shirt and a coat, I find the loose fit, swing shape, length and neckline work over t-shirts, pants, dresses and slips on easily over a vest. You can dress it up or down. For the pattern envelope, I used a Japanese denim, a nylon taffeta, and a Chanel-esque tweed. It would work in rainwear, brocade, jacquard, linen, silk taffeta, velveteen, corduroy or a stable knit like ponte.

The pattern offers options for design and skill level.

Choose from 2 fronts - a symmetrical version with side seam pockets which is simpler/quicker to sew, and an asymmetrical front with an open sculptural pocket on the left side, plain front on the right with an in-seam pocket. This version is a bit more complicated, a fun challenge for your skills.

Hems are asymmetrical and machine finished.
The collar can be finished and buttoned in different ways.
Sleeves are faced so they can be rolled up to ¾ length with a finished cuff.
