Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I really love the outcome of this. It’s a really clever pattern, with the gathered bits doing the shaping. The only alteration I made was to have the buttons closer together.
Material Notes
Posh Jaeger Twill fabric, a bit stretchy

Thank you very much everyone! Very kind.
@scrumptiousdelight: I always go down a size from what they say it should be on the chart and this one came out perfect. I didn’t make any alterations. So yeah, do the size you are normally.

This looks great! I’m planning a kasia myself soon aswell as a pair of anita skinny jeans…but I’m wondering about the sizing as I just made a pair of Nichola trousers (no photos yet, waiting to buy buttons!) and found the sizing really big and had to take them in a size…how did you find the sizing??
