From Truly Victorian:

This is a semi-fitted jacket that hangs open in the front, usually worn over a blouse. It has two styles, one crop length with a rounded collar. The other, waist length with a square collar. The main body is in three pieces, Back, Side Back, and Front. The front is fitted with a single dart. The sleeve is in two pieces, fitted to well above the elbow and with a full sleeve head. Fully lined, this jacket is not boned, and can be worn with or without a corset. With the sleeve as given, this style is suitable for 1889-1893 and 1897-1899. By changing sleeves with pattern TV495, this jacket can also be perfect for 1894-1896.

Drafted based on a tailoring method actually used in the Victorian era, each size is hand drawn, not scaled, with all of the seams true to the era.

Bust 30″-50″
Waist 22″-42″
