It’s actually quite surprising to see a dearth of World War I videogames considering that most real-time strategy games usually devolve into stalemated battles of attrition and the Great War was possibly the most significant conflict of the 20th century involving such battles e.g the Battle of Somme and the Battle of Verdun.

I have to admit, Trench Coats were never a part of my wardrobe. They are bulky, to much going on and thought the style was a bit 'old' for me. But lately, I've been seeing a few trench coats that have been updated well suited for today's trends and style. One update in particular that made me reconsider adding a trench coat in my closet is the shorter trench coats. It's amazing how something

The Mariana Trench is the deepest spot on earth! That is located in the Western North Pacific Ocean, close to Japan and the Philippines. The Mariana trench deepest spot is 10.991 meters deep that is called "Challenger Deep" ( 11°19′N, 142°15′E) named after the exploration vessel of the Royal Navy in 1951. On these depths life is extremely rare, but fishes like the angler fish and the vipe

Aside from the ever famous little black dress, Trench Coats can never be out of fashion! These fashionable coats are versatile enough to pair with simple jeans or even an evening gown, the tailored piece is favored by many of today's VIP fashionistas.But did you know that the first Trench Coat was created by Thomas Burberry?! Sounds familiar, yeah right! He's the founder of the British luxury fashion house, Burberry.I dream of having a Trench Coat but it seems impossible 'coz it's just so hot here in the Philippines and it's silly wearing a coat in the middle of the tropic heat. But for those who are in the cold areas of the world, try to figure out how to wear yours -- be it cropped, long, or in navy blue -- take cues from these trench-loving trendsetters.

I am crazy about trenches; I only had two although I wish I have a whole trench wardrobe. It’s something about the rich detailing: pockets, buttons, belt, shoulder boards. It’s the ultimate expression of the casual elegance. Anyway, each season I watch fashion trends to spot some new ideas. And for this fall designers have come up with some interesting takes on this classic fashion piece.

Hey all -
From comments made in the Fall Wardrobe thread, it looks like there's some interest in starting a sew-along for trench coats.
For ease of reference, I'll use this first post to list suitable patterns, as well as any fabric sources folks come up with for water repellent fabric.
I plan to start my muslin this weekend (September 15)...I'm still on the hunt for fabric, but I am using the ubiquitous Threads pattern. I'll be tracking my progress on my revived sewing blog (shameless plug here) under the category Agent 99.
**Thanks to all participating in this thread for contributing pattern suggestions and pointing out relevant research materials!**
Possible Trench Coat Patterns:
*Burda 101 B
*Burda 103

I'm making the McCall Trench Coat pattern and I'm working out the fit issues on the muslin. I don't have any problems in the bust area this time (shockingly) and the sleeves were pulling but MaryBeth totally showed me how to fix that, so now the only problem left is the back fit. At first, I had a weird wrinkle so I sliced the piece and added in 1/4" which felt better but looks really awful. I can't figure out what I did wrong or what I need to do.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
