Patterns and Instructions: The Rizzo Jacket
Whether you’re a Rizzo, Marty, Frenchie, Jan, or Sandy, I hope you’ll roll up your sleeves and join the Charm Ladies gang!
This Eisenhower-style workwear jacket throws out the traditional menswear style lines to create a shape that highlights all of your curves. With a secret interior welt pocket (perfect for a phone, snacks, or other clandestine treats) and a full lining, it’s guaranteed to be a go-to staple for the cooler months!
Make one in cotton twill with a satin lining for your own girl gang, or try a plaid tweed for the perfect fall layering piece.
I just had to create matching jackets for Susie and I for our own "Charm Ladies" girl gang, out of pink chino twill with a silky hot pink lining. (We share the font and SVG file with you in the pattern instructions, so you can join, too!) And for more everyday wear, I made a gorgeous black-and-white plaid jacket with a purple lining. Now that the weather is turning chillier, I'm wearing it every day!
You'll find the tiled file (for printing at home on A4 or letter size sheets and taping together) and the A0 file (for printing at a copy shop like ThePlottedPattern.com or PDFPlotting.com). Please note that we now have two size blocks, so make sure to download the correct files for the size you're making. If you have any questions about which size to sew, don't forget to read our blog post with all the details!
Don’t forget to watch the companion tutorial video and then share your makes with the hashtags #charmpatterns and #rizzojacket!
xoxo,
Gertie

Is this pattern compatible with the Princess Coat hood?
Pocket is too small for any iPhone plus size phones.. both in the opening and the depth of the bag… ☹️
Hi Gertie and crew, would you need to do anything different to line the jacket with fleece or minky?
I'm hoping for some alterations to this in future to add more of a moto-asymmetry look with more buckles and studs!
It's like you read my mind - I just bought fabric for this type of jacket, but was going to have to buy a pattern that wasn't my size and grade it. THANK YOU!
This is such a fantastic treat, thank you! The plaid version is "off the hook awesome!" Regarding versatility, can a sheer lantern sleeve be made with this jacket? Looking to pair it with the Lucille trousers.
LOVING the plaid version - perfect for this fall!!!
When I saw the hint I really hoped it would be a jacket 🥰🥰 I love this!!
already considered. I usually do a 12D in dresses. THanks
Would you recommend sizing up on a jacket or is the ease to go over
This is wonderful! Thank you ☺️
Just what I've been looking for!!!
Wow how cool xxx
Fabulous jacket - Love it!
Heck yes!!!! Squeeeeee
Love it.... I just wish the girl gang was back and posing as a bunch of picky ladies. The pattern will be great though!
I absolutely love this in the tartan and tweed idea. I'm thrilled with this 😘 thank you.
Yayyyyyyyy!
Ooh a fully lined zip jacket. Totally fabulous too.
Yayyyyyy! 😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩
Super cute 😍
Love it!
I needed this
I knew it!!!!
I love y’all forever for this 💖
Just when we have finally learned *not* to expect the most obvious possible option and get brainstorming on alternatives... Gertie pulls an Uno Reverse. Well played, Gertie. Well played. 🥰
Dashing! Can you tell what is the grey skirt Gertie is wearing? Thanks!
It looks like a gray Stanwyck!
It’s really really nice 😍
So cute, I love it !!
Wonderful! I love this so much, thank you!
Is that black bustier a pattern of yours?
It looks like the Landis bodice to me
Whaaaa!? Just when I have a “ plan” for a Disneybound, Gertie just has to create another brilliant pattern!
Oh, what is that black top underneath the pink jacket. I need that one too! 😍
It looks like the landis bodice to me.
I'm beyond thrilled!! It is perfect for some fabric I currently have in my stash (just need a zipper). I am nearly done with my Grace, and as soon as it's done I'll begin my Rizzo!
I love it!!! And Suzie is absolutely gorgeous in pink.
Suzie NEEDS to be on a billboard!!!!! Fabulous!
I feel like we've all been waiting for this one since the beginning of Gertie's Patreon. 😁❤️🔥
So cute! I will make a few versions.
exactly what i envisioned - the photo showing the back of the jacket! 🩷🖤 love it in the plaid, and love that i don’t have to try to make it in satin or pleather.
YEEEESSS! I had this exactly model in my mind for two jackets that I was going to patterndraw. And now I don´t need to. And just like that, I´m renewing my yearly subscription, which I just cancelled the other day. I just didn´t feel it was for me anymore. And this comes! Good job!
I lileraly just screamed. This membership is worth every single cent
YES! YES,! YEEEEESSSSSSS!
If perfection had to be described, it would be done by this Jacket ✨😍✨ Thank you for blessing us with it💃
This is incredible! Thank you!
I... am... screaming... of... joy
Perfection!!!
Oh wow!!! I Love it!!
I'm deffo a Marty!! :) This is super cute!
Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!
Cute! Too bad in Louisiana it's still 90 degrees lol. Question: what is the black top Gertie is wearing underneath the jacket? It looks like Lamour but I don't think it's that.
I’m pretty sure it’s the Jane set!
I love the SVG and font addition
Yes!
This is exactly what I've been looking for!
Yyyyyiiiiiiippppppppeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!
Oh my gosh! I have asked for this specific style, an Eisenhower, for women! Dreams do come true! Also, Susie in that leopard pencil skirt! I want to twin with her!
I love this so much! RelLy want to get my hands on some pink twill now!
Loooooooooove I’m not a huge bomber style jacket person so I am all about this!!!!!!!
Yay!! Thank you!
Omg this is amazing! I’ve been wanting to make a workwear jacket forever!

YES! As a very short waisted person, this is my absolute favorite jacket style. I am SO excited to make this.
And I’m wondering if I’ll have to lengthen it! I made a shirt in the spring from McCalls pattern company and adding 2 inches wasn’t enough.
Omg so cute and I could print it myself as well 😍😍
You are making my dreams come true!!!’ Love this!!!
