Jasika Nicole Instagram – These #MitchellTrousers by @closetcorepatterns are such a welcome addition to my pattern stash- I have a lot of great slim fit trousers in my arsenal but way less chic wide legged patterns to play around with and I absolutely love this cool, funky silhouette! I’m feeling a little Annie Hall pairing these pants with this hat (RTW from a leather and hat store in Santa Fe); if I just had a little vest to throw over this true bias turtleneck I would be set! The @wearethefabricstore fabric is 🥹🥹🥹 exceptional. It’s a heavyweight viscose twill in pumpkin and I’ve never sewn with anything quite like it. It somehow manages to be thick and squishy while also feeling floaty and hanging fluidly. You ever go to a really high end store or like, a Bloomingdale’s, and thumb through the really expensive garments and wonder “what the hell kind of fabric is this??” because it’s THAT luxurious? This is the fabric they are using lol. I would get it in every color if they had more! One important thing to know is that this fabric must be handled with care- despite its heaviness, it’s surprisingly delicate and it does not like lots of pin holes or the fabric will snag. It requires extra attention but these pants were worth every ounce of care I put into them. As always, the pattern is thoughtful with interesting details (the adjustable side ties!!!) and I can’t wait to make a lighter weigh pair for warmer months! Oh, and outfit also features my new fanny pack from @imadethatbag – I am over the moon in love with it and have used it every single day since I bought it. Lots of great styles, you can request different leather, the pouches are removable so you can choose different colors to match your fit, and it’s beautifully made- thrilled to spend money at a small woman owned business like Lorna’s! ❤️❤️❤️ | Posted on 15/Nov/2022 01:36:49
