im wondering where a good source is for a joker overcoat pattern

 

[desolate]

i hope that helps..

do you have any pics of your jacket or some details of what you modified

 

[desolate]

no i do not.. i let someone use it for the release of TDK and they never returned it and come to find out the guy lives in California so i will never see my jacket again..

i made sure it had a 3 split in the back just like the movie and i believe i made the collier bigger in the front..

i hope that helps..

I have never had much luck finding a decent trench pattern. Usually the best method is to find a suit jacket pattern that comes close in shape and style (like this perhaps http://www.sewingpatterns.com/subpage.php?brand=Burda) and lengthen it. Remember to go a size up from yours so it will fit over your clothes.

I'm assuming you also cringe at the thought of a bespoke suit costing $3000 and up, too.

$850 is a great price for what you get from Magnoli. While "expensive" for many of us, it is definitely the most accurate Joker overcoat I've seen available. :love

here's another one by baron boutique for 349 bucks more than half the price and the color and sleeves are more accurate.

i think in this trade the price of things really doesnt matter as long as it is accurate.. really the more you pay the better quality and more accurate the prop will be...

I have a Joker coat I bought from a company out of Asia for only $100 and it is not completely accurate, however it's still good enough to not justify upgrading to another, more expensive coat at this time.

Honestly, the only real details my coat is missing is accurate buttons (and if anyone knows where to get those, fill me in)
The color is good, but it will always be hard to match up these things without direct study of an original coat.

As far as Indy Magnoli goes, I have several of his Joker pieces and I have to tell you, his product and service is some of the best I have ever dealt with while purchasing online. If his coat is priced in the stratesphere, you can bet the quality is going to be hands-down remarkable.
