Burda Style For people who sew
Description
These are tapered trousers with front and back yokes, curved, inner thigh sections front and back, ankle zips, knee seams, and below the knee topstitching. There are a TON of pieces with lots of topstitching everywhere so these take a long time to sew, but they’re so worth it in the end! I love the way they fit! To see more photos and see a step-by-step tutorial on how to insert exposed ankle zippers into any pattern, head over to FehrTrade.com

Those are awesome. The ankle zippers are a really cool feature.

Great job Melissa! I dig the shirt (and shows that you style the pants with. I also love that you have your own labels to sew into your clothes.
