Top Coats Are Difficult to Fold

A coat is rather difficult is Unfold the lapels and turn the collar up. Then place the coat flat with the back uppermost. So that when it is folded the lining will be on the outside—Arrenge the shoulder and seams so that they will not crease.

Lay the sleeves dawn each side seam. fold them across once, cuffs to the shoulder. Them bring the two front halves of the coat round to the back, and fold them each towards the middle. Fold the coat once across the centre.
