Designed to serve you for many years, the Journey Linen coat/dress speaks of vintage romance.  A connection with times past and a reminder to approach life slowly and gently.
 
 The Journey linen coat has a classic box pleated skirt, a slightly above the waist bodice line,  gathered shoulder with ruffle finished sleeves, two generous in-seam pockets and a long flowing silhouette.   The button up front gives you the versatility to decide how you'd like  'Journey' to serve you, on any given day or season.
 
What began as a celebration design, for the first anniversary of the Handmade Closet, the Journey linen coat/dress is now set to fulfill a long held dream of mine to create a vintage inspired coat that could also serve as a dress.
 
Seen here in the colour ginger, in all purpose 100% linen, this coat is sure to see you through all of the cooler seasons, and would make a great travel wardrobe addition.  Guanteed to age gracefully with you, as you wear it year after year.  I imagine mine to one day speak of the stories of its adventures, embellished with mended patches, or embroidered details.
 
All Journey Linen Coat dresses are made individiually to order in Dayboro Queensland Australia, by me.   Please send your sizing details with your order as requested for the best possible fit. 
 
Our 100% pure linen fabrics have been sourced from ethical and environmentally friendly European manufacturers. Fabric is guaranteed to meet the OEKO textile standard for the human-ecological safety of textile products in all stages of production, with socially and environmentally sound production facilities.
 
Each garment I make is traditionally stitched using enclosed "french" seams, on vintage industrial machines I rescued and restored, for a quality finish and useful long life. You'll find the inside is as beautiful as the outside.
