The new low-rolling Morning Coat is cut as Diagram 86, adapted as described for the low-rolling Lounge, on page 58.
THE NEW WEST END MORNING COAT.
The most stylish coat made in the West End at the beginning of 1903 is the Low-rolling, Single-breasted, Forward-skirted Morning Coat, with the edges flat braided. The waist made very close fitting, and plenty of fulness over the hips. The style of turn here shown is a typical West Ender. The diagram is self-explanatory, the points all being found as previously described. The shaping of the skirt is a matter of taste, but the leading feature is its length—40 inches for figure 5 feet 9 inches high,—and skirt cut very forward. The collar must be cut with a short fall edge. Sometimes flaps are put on the hips, and occasionally turn back cuffs 2 inches deep, and flat braided, are put on the sleeves.
The shoulder seams are kept high, and the sideseams brought up fairly high.
