Maison Fauve – Brooklyn Trouser Pattern

Difficulty: Advanced

Sizes: EU 34-52 (approximately UK 6-22 based on our size chart)

Description

The Brooklyn trouser is undoubtedly the essential piece of the Empire State of Fauve collection. Featuring a wide cut, a slightly high waist, and a fitted waistband, it exudes style and sophistication. Its set of stitched pleats on the front remain unobstructed by the invisible side zip.

The trousers are equipped with belt loops, allowing you to personaise it with a belt of your choice. The double back darts with fake patch pockets help create a slimming effect, accentuating your waist without restricting your silhouette. Versatile in every sense, you can pair it with trainers for a casual urban look or dress it up with stilettos for an evening out.

Recommended fabric

A medium weight (160 – 300 g/m2) soft fabric to achieve a nice fall. Or a slightly heavy viscose, tencel twill, light wool, linen or jacquard.

Notions

• 30cm of lining for the pockets
