DIY Straight-Leg, High-Waisted Pants + Sewing Pattern by Dressmaking Amóre

Hi everyone! In this video I’m so excited to show you how to sew these elegant and classy pants :) This has been a ~very~ highly requested pattern + sewing tutorial, so I am so happy to present this to you today 🥰

I’m using my Darcy PDF downloadable sewing pattern, get it here:

Here are the materials you’ll need:
- 1.75-2.3 m (1.9-2.5 yds) of woven fabric
- Fusible interfacing for the waistband and pocket
- Fly zipper, 23 cm long, 9”
- One-sided zipper foot
- marking tool
- closure: button or eye&hook
- matching thread
- glasshead pins
- scissors
- measurement tape
- Darcy pattern

For these pants here I am using a tercel twill fabric. It’s quite lightweight while still having a heaviness to it that helps keep the right fit of the pants. However, I have made these pants with a Crepe fabric - and I prefer that a bit more because of how it looks after multiple washes.

These tutorials in themselves are a work of art: you're giving advice on fabrics, matching sewing terms with visual aides, etc. Everything that you make is stunning, but it's such a gift to show/teach others how to make it themselves. I'll definitely be buying your patterns. Thank you! ^^

Having an item fit you perfectly is priceless!

Made my first pair of pants. Had my own sewing pattern but needed some guidance on each step of the process. Your video helped clarify how to do it. Thank you!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! I jumped on Youtube to see if there were tutorials for the specific pattern I purchased because the written pattern instructions weren't clear. Your video while it isn't the exact one, was so perfect for me to understand the steps needed for dress pants. Thank you!

Soooo beautiful! I’m 6‘2 so it’s hard for me to find pants that fit me properly so I’m so happy you uploaded this! ❤

I love how they turned out, so elegant!

You can do a straight stitch at the seamlines (or if you're very good - a 16th of an inch inside the seam allowance, alongside the seamlines) if you don't have access to a serger - as most people don't. Or just take care not to let your pattern pieces hang where they're cut on the bias/off the straight of grain

Thank you so much for this excellent video tutorial, it was very well shot and edited and I very much enjoyed watching a piece of fabric turn into this beautiful pleated trousers. I'm 5'3" (160cm) and have an hourglass figure. NOTHING in this world fits me without alteration. I pay twice for any clothing item I buy. Once when I purchase it and once when I take it for alteration. I've been thinking about sewing my own clothes lately, and I'm so glad I found your channel. I just subbed and turned on the bell notification. Could you please do a fitted blazer for hourglass figure in one of your future videos. Many thanks in advance. Cheers and keep up the excellent work.💖💖✨✨

Could I ask where you got the fabric from? Or tips on where to find good Tercel twill?
