Daywear Jacket Style Question

[The Barry]

Back to the original post, if you took that jacket, cut away, and hemmed it up, it would make a smart looking daywear jacket. Just don't close it, the kilt police are all around!

Yes, that is the jacket I am working on. I've cropped it back and it now has a hemline where it is folded in the picture.

It will have a cutaway, just not the same as on my other jacket with the tapered hemline from the curves to the side.

As I have pointed out, it is not possible to close the jacket.

I don't use the term "kilt police," though, I do feel that something else is going on here that has nothing to do with the way one wears a jacket.

After the failure in the pleated-canvas man-skirt thread that lead to the need to create this thread, I am numbing to all of this. I have enjoied learning about the construction of kilt jackets and also of kilts, as well as, experiminting a little with design.
