Fabric:
I’m using a lightweight rayon twill fabric with no stretch. I think anything with a good drape would work. You could even use something with a bit of stretch, but then you may compromise the fluidity of the garment. I used 2 1/2" yards of fabric. It may be different for you depending on your size and height.

MY SEWING EQUIPMENT:
(My sewing machine isn't made anymore, but this one is very similar)
(psssst... I've purchased so many expensive scissors throughout my life and these ones are both my favorite and the cheapest)
(I use plastic head pins during videos so you guys can see what I'm using... but I don't love them. ^THESE are what I use religiously and whenever I am not filming.)

I've been sewing since probably before you were born, and I LOVE this video. You've taken a very complicated process and made it so accessible! Your video is better than 4 pages of written pattern instructions. And the pants themselves are lovely; classic lines, professionally made. Fantastic job my dear!

i have literally never sewn in my life but the pants in in the thumbnail were some of the most beautiful i've ever seen, and i had to click. new sub!! hope to continue seeing you and your channel grow and thrive!!

These trousers are gorgeous! All I wear are trousers like these at the moment - deffo gonna have to make a pair 👍

[latenightphilosophy]

Bro straight up this video is a holy grail, I literally FINALLY managed to make my first pair of wearable pants following this!!! Also if anyone wanted to know- I made mine using stretchy velvet fabric so it works with stretchy fabric too!!

Awesome tutorial, totally going to try this when I get better at sewing. The only thing I would suggest is getting more angles and views of the clothing. I was hoping to see some full body shots of the pants, the back and maybe a bit slower. Other than that, really well explained and gorgeous color.

[karinaarriaga]

I am amazed as to how well explained this was. I’m a beginner but I’m definitely going to dive into this project. I just bought trousers just like these super expensive so seeing how I can make them on my own I’m kicking myself. So excited to try and will take pictures 😊

[kkbearxoxo]

I’m new and self taught to this sewing situation and honestly this video helped me so much especially cus you spoke in basic terms and explained everything so properly, absolutely love you and will be subscribing

[Akemiable]

In other sewing tutorials, pockets are always super complicated, your method is so much easier! Thank you

[JessicaSmith-zbsq]

Literally just found a free sewing machine on the sidewalk the other day. It works. Im going to start by mending my clothes but mark my words I WILL be making these pants. Love your work! Thank you so much!

When you explained that you'd attach the zipper to the backseem, I was so curious how the pants would look like in the back when you wear it, but unfortunately the worn footage showed only the front. I'm just wondering if the zipper is absolutely not bulky and makes a good and neat silhouette at the back.

[vivianxie]

making the pants from golden music video wish me luck

[fishfish]

I need to make these!! I'm so new to sewing so I eventually want to tackle these at some point!
