Burda Style For people who sew

Description

They are ridiculously wide and I love them. I really liked the construction techniques for the pockets and fly on these www (wide,wide,wide) trousers. As a side note I would not advise wearing these when travelling unless you enjoy a really long pat down at the airport.

Another pair made as shorts.

Material Notes

Navy Linen that I got for £12 for 3 metres from Ebay, it looks a bit too creasy after a days wear. I lined with an aubergine polyester lining from Fabric land. The envelope calls for 2 ½ yards of Flat Lace trim which is used to hem the trousers but I just used a normal hemming technique. I also used sew on poppers instead of buttons.
