Can someone give me an estimate of the collar stand hight on this coat I intend to make. I usually go with 1 1/4 inches - this is obviously WAY higher. Also - do I have to do any special shaping, or will the shaping naturally occur due to the high collar
stand...???
This is a bit late and off-topic, but I really like your workshop setup lee!
I am looking at some overcoats I have here. Their stands seem to be in the 1 1/2" range with a 2" fall on the top-collar.
Have you thought of asking the maker of the coat in the example you gave?
I don't think it would need any extra shaping.
Could be 1 1/2". It's really anyones guess.
