Retro Jacket after Revamp

The jacket was too long and needed to be shortened however, there were deep pockets that hung right down to the hem. I stitched the opening of the pockets closed so that I could cut the jacket off right through where the pockets hung. I hemmed the bottom after opening out the facing. Then stitched the bottom of the facing back onto the jacket. The jacket was still a little baggy in the front, so I stitched in the princess lines about 1 or 2 centimeters. And voile! A one of a kind jacket that looks great with pants or a skirt.
