Any ideas?
I have this beautiful vintage sheepskin coat. It is so big & heavy .It must be very old, the shoulder pads were made out of horse hair & were hand stitched! The sleeves are way too big but I love the cuff detail. I want to make it wearable, I’m thinking bomber jacket shape? I have never worked with sheepskin before . I just don’t want to ruin it. Any ideas & advice would be most welcome 🙂

super cool material! I would change the sleeves, as they are a bit too long. Then find a eye catcher to close it (i.e. toggle buttons, trimmings buttons)
