I normally do not sew pants as I hardly wear them,
but the Chanel S/S 2013 collection that was shown last October changed my mind when I saw these come down the runway.
It was the sandals that caught my eye but the pants were interesting enough for me to try & make.
I used a poly cotton nylon fabric that resembled the Chanel perforated pants. I first used this McCalls' 6404 legging pattern but it was too form fitting even though I cut a size bigger.
My only other pant pattern is this one that I made pants for my middle daughter a couple of years ago.
I omitted the drawstring & it worked much better for me!
Looking at this photo, I do need to work on my hems & next time will hand sew. Maybe even try a real pant pattern with a zipper :)
Sew you later!
