Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Loose trousers and a tunic for a trip to South East Asia later in the year. I needed something modest that I could wash overnight if necesary. Both turned out a little bigger than planned but at least they’ll be comfortable in the heat!

Thanks everyone. I’m off to Cambodia and Laos mainly, with a couple of days in Singapore and Thailand. I’ve got really fair skin and can’t be bothered using gallons of sun cream so it’s easier to cover up…I’ve since made another pair of the trousers but added in seam pockets following the how to on this site.

This is awesome! I wish I would of had something like this for my trip to SE Asia…the heat nearly killed me! :) Where are you going exactly?

It’s a Simplicity 4013. I lengthened the sleeves – they’re 3/4 length on the pattern.
