I love these croquisdrawings! The long jacket (coat) looks especially good.

Hi Eva, I did a whole lot of others before I settled on that. Its very interesting to draw the styles out on your own bodyshape and see what they look like.

Got a book from those "What not to wear" ladies on body types. I am a pear shape (long waist, short legs, saddlebags, small bust) and they totally recommend coats for my type! So I will try out something like yours at some point.

Eva, I have borrowed that same book, and I seem to be nearest a Skittle but with the upper body of a Brick. So I am just experimenting and seeing what works.

Hi, Ruthie. I, too, love your croquis drawings. I have often thought about doing this and seeing how well your have turned out, I may steel myself up to try a set of my own. I had my mom help me make a duct tape dressing form and that was shocking enough. I found it diet-inspiring to see my form in the "round".
