The SHOWstudio Design Download is a kimono-inspired jacket pattern based on Alexander McQueen’s Autumn/Winter 2003 Scanners collection. Threads reported it as a free download in 2012, but the official SHOWstudio page could not be accessed to verify whether the download works now. A third-party listing gives one approximate size and width-dependent fabric amounts; it does not establish the pattern’s current file details or sewing instructions.

Where to find the pattern

Threads reported on July 17, 2012, that the pattern was available as a free SHOWstudio download. That is a historical report, not confirmation of present availability: the official SHOWstudio page returned a 403 access error when checked, so it is not possible to confirm that the pattern file can currently be downloaded.

The pattern is tied to McQueen’s kimono-inspired jacket from the Autumn/Winter 2003 collection Scanners. The Scandinavian Academy of Fashion Design’s Learn Hub identifies the collection and provides the practical size and fabric figures below. Treat it as a third-party listing, not as the pattern file or an official current product listing.

What size is it?

The Learn Hub listing gives a single approximate size: US 6 / UK 8, with a 32-inch bust and 24-inch waist. It does not provide a graded size range or guarantee that these measurements will fit; use them only as a starting point and confirm the sizing against the current pattern instructions if you obtain the file.

How much fabric do I need?

The same listing gives different approximate lengths depending on fabric width:

Fabric width Listed amount
60 inches Approximately 1.75 metres (about 2 yards)
39 inches More than 3 metres (about 3.25 yards)

These figures do not specify fiber, fabric weight, or drape, and the listing does not say whether the amounts allow for print matching or a test garment. Check the current pattern instructions and the width of your chosen fabric before buying or cutting.

What does the pattern include?

The exact PDF layout, printing scale, seam allowances, cutting layout, and construction sequence have not been verified. A secondary maker article’s search-result excerpt describes a one-size pattern printed on home-printer pages and taped together, but the article could not be opened to confirm those details. Do not rely on that excerpt as a substitute for checking the current file before printing or sewing.

How does the jacket relate to Scanners?

The Learn Hub describes Scanners as a journey eastward through Siberia, Tibet, and Japan, combining geometric prints with McQueen’s tailoring. Its summary also mentions a CAT-scan-based invitation and a snowy tundra with a raised wind tunnel. This is the listing’s account of the collection context, not a verified quotation from McQueen.
