Recommended Fabrics

STELLA works best in medium to heavyweight woven fabrics with enough body to define the oversized collar and lapels while maintaining a relaxed, elegant silhouette.

Recommended fabrics include:

• Wool and wool-blend coating fabrics
• Brushed wool, mohair-style and alpaca-style coating fabrics
• Bouclé and tweed
• Boiled wool
• Medium to heavyweight corduroy
• Structured cotton twill

For a look similar to the jacket shown in our photos, we recommend choosing a soft, textured coating fabric with enough body to maintain the shape of the collar and lapels while allowing the jacket to drape naturally.

For a more structured look, choose boiled wool, tweed, medium to heavyweight corduroy, or structured cotton twill. These fabrics help emphasize the oversized lapels and create a defined, contemporary silhouette.

For a softer and more relaxed finish, try brushed wool, soft wool blends, or mohair-style and alpaca-style coating fabrics. These materials provide a beautiful texture and a more fluid silhouette while maintaining the jacket’s distinctive shape.

Avoid excessively stiff or bulky fabrics, which may create too much volume around the oversized collar. Very lightweight fabrics may not provide enough structure to support the jacket’s silhouette.

Why You’ll Love It

STELLA combines contemporary design with simple construction, making it an ideal project for anyone looking to sew a stylish and versatile jacket.

The oversized lapel collar creates an elegant statement, while the straight silhouette gives the jacket a relaxed, modern feel. Its clean lines make it easy to style with both casual and sophisticated outfits.

The unlined construction simplifies the sewing process, allowing you to create a beautiful handmade jacket without the complexity of a traditional tailored coat.

Sew STELLA in soft wool coating for a cozy autumn or winter layer, choose textured bouclé or tweed for a refined and elegant finish, or use corduroy for a relaxed everyday jacket.

The optional patch pockets offer an additional styling choice, allowing you to keep the design minimalist or add a practical, casual detail.

Wear it over jeans and a sweater for an effortless everyday look, or pair it with tailored trousers or a dress for a more sophisticated outfit.

Simple construction, elegant proportions, and endless possibilities to make STELLA your own.
