That style would not work on my body at all, but I would love to see it in the wild on someone who wears it well.</p> <p>Edited for a typo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854352 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 21:10:27 +0000 JP 1854352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh this is fun, thank you for your good points! So far #2 is the winner, 10 to 5 - I'll re-count before I cut the fabric.&nbsp;</p> <p>Joy &amp;&nbsp;&nbsp;JuniperGreen, thank you, I will post a picture.</p> <p>K.M. Yes, I'm happy for the skills, I call it "Sewing Therapy" because I couldn't afford too much retail therapy :-)&nbsp;</p> <p>Binkle, good point. I see the 'carrot pants' too and I'm thinking I can make #1 at a later time.</p> <p>AndiB, 'more fashion forward &amp; interesting' makes me think, good point. I may have to make both #1 and #2 :-P</p> <p>The Cat, I like the 70's vibe&nbsp;</p> <p>Toban, I kept wearing my full length pants and I only had 2 or 3 pairs of cropped pants - I never put something completely aside, especially that I'm in a very conservative work environment.</p> <p>Rachylou, you made me laugh, now if I make #2, I won't be able to wear it with the blazer without remembering this comment plus, I like the sound of 'advanced fashion'.</p> <p>I just realized I've take a really long break at work, if I didn't respond to your comment please forgive me.</p> <p>Thanks Everyone!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854307 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 17:38:22 +0000 rachylou 1854307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Back to plug for #1 some more... because esp. with the jacket... my fear with two, it will slide into Chairman Mao territory... but with 1, that's advanced fashion... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854271 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 16:29:00 +0000 The Cat 1854271@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would choose #2. Classic, gorgeous and with a 70s vibe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854238 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 13:46:46 +0000 Toban 1854238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All three are on trend, but I lean towards #2 because full length pants are so nice to see again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854235 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 13:27:21 +0000 JuniperGreen 1854235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My vote is #2 but all sound fab - please show us your creation when you're done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854222 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 12:56:55 +0000 Janet 1854222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm drawn to #2. How great those would be in a really beautiful fabric with excellent drape. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854192 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 10:20:31 +0000 AndiB 1854192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One here too. More fashion forward and interesting. You could easily buy 2 and 3, but one? Probs not </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854177 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 08:25:15 +0000 approprio 1854177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for #1. That deep tuck is crying out for a beautiful hand and drape... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854176 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 08:04:07 +0000 rachylou 1854176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 1 the best too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854168 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 06:42:00 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1854168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854164 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 05:36:14 +0000 Gigi 1854164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Number 2 is my fave, though just by a hair. I feel like no. 3 is a pretty common silhouette these days, so it won't stand out as much. No. 2 is very fresh and will be eye-catching, IMO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854163 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 05:36:04 +0000 Laura G 1854163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 here also. Classic, as you say. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854160 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 05:14:45 +0000 binkle 1854160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a bit torn between 1 and 2, leaning towards 2. </p> <p>I'm starting to see more "carrot" shapes like 1 in some magazines and higher end retail sites. But given fashion's trickle down effect, high waisted wide legs like 2 are still new (and a personal perennial favorite)!</p> <p>Really love the combination of checks and velvet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854154 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 04:47:19 +0000 Anonymous 1854154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 gets my vote. Warm if you have cold winters. The blazer sounds yummy. Please show us the results. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854121 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 01:39:21 +0000 K.M. 1854121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for number 2! They look so glamorous. And how cool that you can make it all yourself! I wish I had some sewing skills... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854119 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 01:35:45 +0000 bridgie 1854119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote for no 2.&nbsp; Just flowy enough.&nbsp; So elegant.&nbsp; Love them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-of-pants#post-1854115 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 01:30:25 +0000 JP 1854115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I saw a<br /> checked </p> <p>suiting fabric yesterday that has a beautiful hand and drape and I just had to buy it.&nbsp; I cannot decide what type of trousers I want to make (photos below), ideally I'd like to make all 3 - but my time is very limited.&nbsp; So, I need your votes please <br />Currently I am making the blazer in pic #2&nbsp; mine is a little shorter than that and the fabric is a richer burgundy velvet (I'll post a picture when I complete it) - the trouser fabric is not necessarily for this blazer but it has a little burgundy in the checks - actually it is almost the same fabric as the Zara pants&nbsp;<br /> <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.zara.com/us/en/woman-trousers-pleated-l1352.html">https://www.zara.com/us/en/wom.....l1352.html</a></p> <p> All three of these will look good on my body type so which one should I make? <br />#1: high waist, pleated<br />#2: High waist, wide leg, classic trousers<br />#3: Mid waist, cropped (ignore the poor fit in the picture, mine won't be like that)<br />#4: Any other suggestions?</p> <p>Thank you for your help! I can't wait to see which style is the winner... <br />Janette</p> <p> </p>
