Making a Tailored Waistcoat | Guide to a Bespoke Suit

This is part 3 of 4 in my guide to making a bespoke tailored waistcoat. This video guide covers the making of the waistcoat. Cutting the inside lining, making the pockets, the foreparts and the back lining, sewing the back and front together. The previous guides covered preparing the pieces and making a baste for testing the fit. The following guides cover making the waistcoat baste and then making the waistcoat. You could skip making the waistcoat baste for the fitting and go directly to part 3 of making the waistcoat as both guides start from the end of this one. If this is the first of my guides you’re seeing I am a training tailor making guides to as many parts of bespoke tailoring as I can for you to learn as well. I suggest referencing earlier content to better frame what I might do differently. There are fewer bespoke resources and it’s a different process to production garment making.
