Veronica Vest - PDF Sewing Pattern
Veronica Vest - PDF Sewing Pattern
Couldn't load pickup availability
Veronica is a semi-fitted vest that shows appreciation for classic tailoring. It is fully lined and features front and back waist darts, functional welt pockets, and a back adjuster to personalize the fit. The side seams of the vest hit at the high hip.
Veronica also a includes a sleek, front variation with an asymmetric button closure and a raised V-neckline for a modern twist on classic tailoring.
Wear Veronica as a top or layered over your favorite shirt and, of course, with a pair of Tatjana Trousers!
Sizes: 34 - 60 (more information).
The samples are sewn wool suitings (super 110s). For this pattern, I recommend light to medium-weight woven fabrics with a good drape, such as wool suiting, wool crepe, lightweight wool tweed, cotton twill, and linen-cotton blends.
If using a plaid or a stripe fabric, note that the front dart might make matching difficult.
For reference, I wear the teal and beige samples in size 34 without alterations. Lilli wears the navy sample in size 52 without alterations, and Pauline wears her fuschia version in size 44.

Sizing
I draft and grade my sewing patterns for a height of 5’5” (1.65m) from size 34 to 60 (see below). When applicable, the size range is divided between 34-46, developed for B/C cup size, and 46-60, developed for a DD cup size.
If your body measurements are at least one size outside of the size range, I grade up or down at no cost.
See the sizing page for more information.
