Maison Fauve | MISFIT Perfecto Sewing Pattern

Iconic, timeless, and a true wardrobe staple, the biker jacket is a key piece to embrace in your handmade wardrobe. So of course, we want it to be perfect: challenge confidently met with the MISFIT biker jacket pattern. Neither too long nor too short, it strikes the perfect balance in proportion, delivering the expected volume effect without overwhelming the silhouette. All the classic biker codes are there: the signature collar, shoulder tabs and gussets, the wide belt, and the bold front zip that echoes the zipped welt pockets and the gusseted sleeve zips. MISFIT is the bad-boy jacket for women who are less well-behaved than they seem…
