Burda Style For people who sew
Notes
Whether a night on stage or Prom Night, a tuxedo is a must for those special evenings in a man’s life. Our tux jacket has a classic cut, pointed satin lapels, and flap welt pockets. We used the Jochen pant pattern for our tux pant, with the only alterations being the satin strip sewn down the side seam, and a flat wide hook and eye at the center front instead of a button. We also used our David bow tie pattern. Please note this pattern is available BOTH as a print from home pattern and a print from copy shop!
