Hello everyone!
It has been awhile! I fell away from sewing for a bit, college has consumed the entirety of my life but I am starting to find a balance once more =) I have come to the place I have always been able to find some sort of answer when I have a question! While browsing around I found a full skirted trench coat that I absolutely fell in love with. With a price tag of £2,195.00 it is well out of the range of reality to purchase...however much like the rest of you, I am creative and resourceful and in possession of the skills needed to create a clever imitation! The problem however is I can't find a pattern. Size isn't much of an issue, I can alter a pattern, but I can't really draft one of my own. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd love any and all!
Thanks so much for your time and your help!
Oh...it might help if I linked the coat, right? Full Skirt Trench Coat

This trench is BEAUTIFUL! I love the color...
These are a few patterns I found via a quick Google search. It looks to me as though the Burberry trench has a sort of upper and lower part sewn together at the middle. So you may be able to frankenpattern a few patterns together to get the look you want. Heck, you may even be able to use a few different dress patterns to get the look you want. I wonder, in fact, if a modified shirt dress wouldn't work?
