Welcome back to the channel! This month, we're diving into the 1950s-60s with our latest Crew pattern: the Peggy Jacket - named after iconic art patron Peggy Guggenheim.

✨ What makes Peggy special:
- Classic Chanel-inspired boxy silhouette that never goes out of style
- Two views: casual open-front blazer OR buttoned jacket with overlap
- Sits perfectly at the high hip - ideal proportions for jeans and pants
- Features vintage details like fringe trim and patch pockets
- Fully lined with couture construction techniques
- Great introduction to tailoring without fussy collars or lapels

This timeless design captures that effortless Jackie O elegance while being completely wearable today. Think stonewashed jeans, sneakers, and this chic little jacket - pure sophistication!

Fabric suggestions: Suiting, tweed, coating weight fabrics, jacquard, even denim or twill for a more structured look.
