Final Trousers!

This is a image of my inside trouser I orginally intended to leave the seams free and not joined but I thought it looked better to sew a french seam on the inside and outside seams.

- I made a decision to put the inside of the french seam on the outside of the fabric. Here I did the top trouser and attached it at the wasitband.- Above is a image off the flower I created for the waistband, I checked that the size of the flower was in proportion with my garment.

- I used a variety of fabrics some heavyweight some lightweight this gave the effect off the petals falling in different directions.

-I did not want to put a zip into the side seam as I thought it made my garment too heavy.

- I decided to put a placket in the back of the trousers where the back dart should be, image shown just above (where the fabric is gathered together)

- I re sized the garment and altered the trousers slightly.

- For my top trouser I first of all decided to put my darts on the outsides of the fabric, but then when I tried to fit the waistband I decided to alter the design to a slight gather as it looked better.

- I attached the waistband and then sewed the inside by hand as the market level for this garment would be couture.

- I then measured the trouser length and added a small hem to each trouser leg.
