If the coat itself needs to be white while the color of the backpatch changes, you're not going to be able to do this as a single garment. You've got 2 options here:
  1. Have a transparent spot on the coat in the backpatch area, so the shirt layer underneath it will show through. Put the backpatch design on the shirt, which is otherwise completely transparent. To change the color of the backpatch, simply change the color of the shirt.

    OR



  2. Attach a prim to your back with the patch design on it. Make sure the cube texturing is completely transparent except for the design itself. To change the color of the patch, change the color of the cube.
