vinceaddams:My tailored coat is starting to resemble a coat! I’ve got the main body sewn together and the shoulder pads in. I still need to attach the sleeves & collar, finish the lining, and add buttons & buttonholes.I can’t wait to wear it!Ah. A relic from 2014 that I still have not finished and which is now never going to fit me properly because my proportions and posture are so different now.I started this before transition and it turns out that top surgery can DRASTICALLY improve your posture to the point where things that used to fit are now too tight across the chest. I didn’t even realize I had been hunching that much, but all my older waistcoats now gape too much in front.This coat just needs a bit of hemming and to have buttons and buttonholes added, but it’s hard to find motivation to do that when I know I’ll most likely end up giving it away to someone who it fits. -- source link
