Mods coat Sewing Patterns | DRCOS Patterns & How To Make

This is a free sewing pattern and tutorial for making a swagger coat (mod coat) with a drawstring waist. The back is designed with an upper and lower panel, creating a stylish layered look.

The hood can be made with or without fur trim, depending on your preference. Since the waist can be adjusted with the drawstring, there are no darts, and the silhouette remains relaxed and comfortable.

We recommend using lightweight cotton or fabrics that naturally wrinkle for a casual, textured finish. The pattern does not include a lining, but facing lines are marked so you can easily draft your own lining pieces if desired. Adding a lining will make it warmer for winter, while keeping it unlined makes it perfect for spring and autumn wear.

The design features a front placket with an open zipper, which may be a little challenging for beginners, but it results in a cute and functional coat. The pattern already includes seam allowances—just print, assemble, and cut to start sewing.

The production process is explained with translation software.
