short suit

blazer - burda magazine 08/2012/#137

shorts - burda magazine 10/2010/#111

bought this fabric last fall
0.5m of it, to make these shorts
and i loved it so much, i decided to go back to store and buy more
and make me a matching blazer
and wear that to my birthday party last january
..
but, as per usual with me, i failed to do that,
so i wore something else to the party
and forgot all about fabric and blazer and everything
..
but then i got a ticket for
nick cave and the bad seeds concert, for late october
and that 'suit' seemed like a perfect outfit for the occasion..
it's sort of inspired by mr cave,
as he's always wearing a suit,
and the print takes it to another level
instead of just copying his black-suit look
and making me look like i'm wearing a nick cave costume
..

i made straight size 38

and haven't change a single thing about the pattern

it was an easy one to construct

since there is no real collar or pockets

the only slightly tricky part was an angled seam 

that you can (sort of) see in pics below 

it's a great pattern

and i already have plans to make more blazers from it

as well as a vest version
