I made these pants also, but ...I love this outfit! I made these pants also, but in lightweight denim, last spring, and I really like them. I ended up adding about 2" to the rise of the pants too (my usual alteration with Burda), by splitting the panels in half horizontally and adding length to them, to make the pants actually sit at my waist. Is that what you mean by "deepened the top back panels"? I didn't end up doing stays though -- I just sewed in some 1/4" twill tape at the waistline seam and haven't had any problem keeping the pants up.<br />The blouse is adorable too -- the bib, the directions of the stripes -- love! I've had the short-sleeve version on my "to sew" list since 2008, but now I must have the long-sleeved one too.<br />Great job and thanks for posting these -- so inspirational!Olgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13851521850477762049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3171393543419365098.post-40231721347255874212011-03-11T20:30:27.833+01:002011-03-11T20:30:27.833+01:00very classy and yes flattering!

I've read about that technique of making a waistline stay in place with the boning, but have never actually used it. I'm glad to know it works as I wanted to try it on a high waisted skirt soon. I typically have problems with high waisted skirts staying where they are supposed to. Great idea with the hair canvas though too! This entire outfit looks terribly professional and very flattering! Lovely!<br /><br />xoxo,<br />SunniSunnihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16380215145775412897noreply@blogger.com
