Men's Nehru Jacket PDF Sewing Pattern

Prepared after purchase. Digital delivery within 1 business day. A short stand collar replaces lapels on this planned men’s Nehru jacket. Five buttons, a shaped hip-length body and low flap pockets create a clear 1960s-inspired tailoring project.

Stand-collar tailoring with a shaped body

• Slim hip-length jacket with a short stand collar and no lapels
• Five center-front buttons and gently rounded lower front corners
• Two lower flap pockets and a planned internal breast pocket
• Shaped underarm side sections for the fitted torso
• Two-piece set-in sleeves with two-button cuff trim
• Center-back seam with a short rear vent and planned lining

Both colors belong to this one jacket design. The charcoal trousers are styling only and are not included.

Fabric and construction

A stable, medium-weight suiting with enough body to support the stand collar is the starting point. Peacock teal and golden ochre show two cloth directions. Evaluate the shell, interfacing and lining as a system: a limp cloth can collapse at the neck, while heavy coating can make the collar and pocket flaps bulky.

The English guide will address the shaped underarm sections, stand collar, front opening, lined flap pockets, internal breast pocket, two-piece sleeves, cuff trim, rear vent and lining. Collar support and the internal construction will be established during original pattern development.

A full fitting sample should check neck clearance with the top button closed, chest and back ease, sleeve pitch, reaching movement, hip balance and whether the rear vent hangs closed at rest. This is structured tailoring; the previews do not establish a tested fit.

Compare lapelled tailoring in the men’s sport coat, or a sleeveless layer in the men’s vintage-inspired waistcoat. Explore jacket patterns and men’s sewing patterns.
