Originally a mens suit jacket, this is now a women’s sleeveless business dress which can be converted into a layered vest. The detachable hood is made from the original sleeves and shoulder pads.

Trying to make use of every pattern piece of a 1700s pierrot jacket, I created something that still has the essence of the original pattern.
