Tech. Description

Winged Bolero Jacket

Introducing a chic women's sewing pattern for a cropped bolero jacket distinguished by its dramatic stand collar, asymmetric lapel and unique winged sleeves, designed for non-fraying fabrics with raw edges.

When To Wear

  • Fashion Statement: For making a bold and sophisticated impact at social gatherings or upscale events.
  • Smart Casual: Elevating everyday ensembles with a touch of tailored flair.
  • Layering Piece: Adding warmth and style over dresses or tops in transitional weather.

Key Design Features

Silhouette: Cropped, boxy silhouette designed to sit at the natural waist or slightly above.

Collar & Lapel: A tall stand collar cut in one piece; on the right front the lapel is laid over the collar and stitched in place, creating an asymmetric, sculptural neckline. The collar seams are sewn with the allowances on the outside as a decorative detail.

Closure: No fastenings – the rounded fronts simply overlap at the center front.

Sleeves: Distinctive wide-cut, winged sleeves set only into the upper part of the armhole, leaving the lower armhole open for a cape-like drape and fluid movement.

Hem: The front hem features a rounded curve, while the back hem is straight. All outer edges are left raw (no hem or facing).

Level Of Difficulty

Intermediate. Involves precise collar setting, working with specific seam allowance instructions (including zero allowances on raw edges), and careful assembly of the unique sleeve design.

Fabric Recommendations

Choose medium-weight fabrics with good body that do not fray, as the edges are left raw:

  • Non-fraying fabrics made from natural or blended fibers
  • Neoprene

Additional Supplies

  • No buttons or other fastenings required

Cutter's Must

If the patterns have a double contour, they include seam allowances. If the contour is single, the patterns do not include seam allowances. Seam allowances: all seams 1 cm. Seam allowance at the bottom edge and front edge – 0 cm. Seam allowance at the lower part of the armhole and on the sleeve edges except for the sleeve cap – 0 cm. Outer seam allowances of the collar – 0 cm. Attention! First of all, print out the paper patterns and lay them out on the fabric width (fabric width can be from 90cm to 150cm) to determine how much material you will need (do not forget to account for paired and symmetrical pieces). When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match! Markings on the patterns are made on the right side.

  • From main fabric:
    • Back – 1 piece on fold
    • Front – 2 pieces
    • Sleeve – 2 pieces
    • Collar – 1 piece

Sewing Instructions

  1. On the right front, cut off the seam allowance along the neckline and lapel.
  2. Stitch the side and shoulder seams. Trim the seam allowances to 0.5 cm and press open.
  3. Place the right front onto the right-hand part of the collar and stitch along the marked line. Clip the seam allowance at the corner.
  4. Clip the collar seam allowances at the marks. Stitch the collar into the back neckline, trim the seam allowance to 0.5 cm and press open. Stitch the collar into the left front neckline, placing the pieces wrong sides together, so that the seam allowances end up on the right side. Trim the seam allowances to 0.5 cm and press open.
  5. Set the sleeve into the upper part of the armhole. Press the seam allowance.
