The fortunate thing is that with all the pieces in the back, you can fit it more easily by taking in seam allowances. If you've made princess seamed items, I think you could manage.

In my opinion, it is the best frock coat pattern out there by far. The instructions are extensive, clear and well illustrated. Separate pattern pieces for lining and interfacing (where necessary) are included. I think a patient advanced beginner could do it just fine.
