I need some sewing advice! and DIY crafts

I visited the local op shop today and came across this little bit of 70s goodness:

Crazy, right? The problem is, it’s a size 20 and I want it to be a coat.


Yes, a coat. Which is why I need your advice. I’m thinking that I cut it through the middle, unpick the lining, take it in through the princess seams at the front and side seams:

At the back there is a zip which is problematic, however I thought since there’s a LOT of taking in required, I could remove the zip and just make it a centre back seam. I’ll also need to give it a shoulder lift.

Soooo….is this a) even do-able and; b) worth the effort?


Please please please tell me what to do!
