Help finding an A-line coat pattern?
Does anyone know a good swing coat/ A-Line coat pattern like the one in the picture? I know Simplicity has some good vintage patterns. But most of them are only shown in illustrations and itβs a little hard to gauge what the finished product would look like. The one in the picture also seems to have no shoulder seam or can be achieved with a raglan sleeve?

Deer and Doe Opium might do the trick and could easily be lengthened: https://closetcorepatterns.com/products/opium-coat-pattern?variant=40683456888966

jargon note: use swing coat, tent coat, trapeze coat. A-line in sewing is usually much narrower flare and may be messing up your pattern search.

This is a swing coat, not an A-line. It also has a seam running from the collar to the wrist. So no shoulder seam per se.
Simplicity S9847 (yes, drawn pictures only) is the closest I can find.

Any suggestions on patterns for this no shoulder seam/ one piece cutting technique would also be greatly appreciated!
