Pantalone sa reverima / Pants with a collar

Nakon posta o iskustvu koje sam imala tokom kursa o modnom dizajnu, počela sam intenzivno da razmišljam o tome da materijalizujem neke od svojih ideja. Pantalone sa reverima su mi bile prve na tapetu.

After I posted about my experience with the fashion design course, I started thinking intensively about materializing some of my ideas. Pants with a collar are first on my list.


Posle intentivnog mozganja o tome kako da napravim kroj za iste, reših da napravim test kroj. Koristila sam kroj za Bella pantalone, i podosta ga izmenila ne bih li dobila željeni detalj na pojasu. Evo kako test kroj izgleda. Nabori na preponama su posledica toga što mi je test kroj malo tesan, ali to ću srediti tokom šivenja. 
Planiram da koristim divnu sivu vunu koju imam, a koja je kupljena pre nego što sam ja rođena, sa planom da se sašije odelo mom ocu. Držite mi palčeve, večeras se bacam na šivenje! :-)


After intense brainstorming on how to make a pattern for these pants, I made a muslin. I used the Bella pattern from Burda Style, and altered it a lot to get the collar detail on the waist. Here's how the muslin looks. The wrinkles on the crotch are there because the muslin was a bit tight, but I'll fix this while sewing.
I'll use a gorgeous gray wool I have in my stash, that was bought before I was even born, and it was supposed to become a suit for my dad. Keep your fingers crossed for me, I'm gonna sew tonight! :-)
