Lux Coat is an Arc Archives style. Limited formats. Construction sheets are minimal, and a tutorial might not exist - for confident sewists who are up for a challenge.
This modern sophisticated on trend coat is clever in its simplicity, straight architectural lines give this coat an edge that differs from the usual. The clever design of the tucked neckline creates an interesting shawl collar.

I ended up throwing the whole lot out in sheer frustration. Vague instructions. No tutorials and no one seems to have made it…I wonder why. Its in the archive. Leave it there.
I have made many items from Style Arc and often in different fabrics as I have liked them so much which is why I think I found this jacket so disappointing. Such a shame.

How Do I Know What Size I Am?
Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.
When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:
A. Shoulder Breadth
Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.
B. Upper Arm Girth
This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.
C. Bust
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.
D. Waist
This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.
E. Hip
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
