The Libby Jacket Sewing Pattern
£22.50
Meet the Libby Jacket – a beautifully structured, cropped jacket that blends timeless tailoring with effortless modern style. Created by Moonhare Designs and famously worn by Stephen Libby, this standout piece takes inspiration from 1940s workwear with a confident nod to 1970s styling.
Featuring a sharp spearpoint collar, oversized inverted tuck patch pockets, and striking topstitching details, the Libby Jacket is all about clean lines, considered structure, and elevated everyday wear. It’s a true wardrobe staple for sewists who love precision with personality.
