A Flattering Hoodie

Hello Refashion Co-op. I wanted to make the hooded jacket you see in the picture below. This is a big cozy men's jacket. I liked the length but not the baggy fit.

 

 

I used a favorite hoodie as a guide to mark my new seams.

 

Here you can see how I took the sides in and made the arms shorter.

 

To correct the boxy fit of the jacket, I added some thin elastic inside the jacket. I attached it where it would define my waist a little.

 

That was it. This was perfect to wear with leggings and go out without feeling like my back end was hanging out.
