Printing Instructions
After identifying your size using the Size Chart, you can display only your selected size in the PDF pattern by using the Layers function.
Print the pattern at 100% / Actual Size and verify the scale using the test square. Cut along the margins and assemble the pages edge to edge using transparent adhesive tape.
The pattern includes 1 cm / 3/8 in seam allowances, so there is no need to add seam allowances before cutting your fabric.
Three print formats are included: A4, US Letter and A0.
Style Tips
The MILANO VEST creates a refined, fitted and tailored silhouette. The front waist darts and shaped panels define the figure, while the welt pockets add a polished tailored detail.
The adjustable back belt with its metal slide buckle allows the waist to be tightened or loosened for a more personalized fit.
Pair the vest with wide-leg trousers, tailored pants, skirts or layered pieces for an elegant and versatile look.
Important Note
Before cutting your final fabric, we recommend sewing a test garment (muslin) to check the fit and make any necessary adjustments. The booklet also recommends finishing raw edges before assembly to prevent fraying.
The MILANO VEST is an advanced sewing project (4/5) with an estimated sewing time of approximately 6–8 hours.
