This pattern is from a few years back and it is still one of my favourites. It is from the now defunct McCall's NY Collection. I really liked the designs that came out of the NY Collection, and you can find them on ebay every now and then.
McCall's 2465 is a pattern that includes a pair of pants and coat dress.
The fabric that I chose was a deep burgandy overlay with black faux topstitch design throughout. I recall the fabric as one that frayed very easily but it turned out quite nicely. Thank goodness for a serger!
The coat dress is lined. I used a medium weight black lining. The lining is actually heavier than the fabric that I chose for the coat dress and I'm happy with the result.
