Description

Just in time to brighten up your spring wardrobe, these fresh high-waisted Bella pants are a good fit for many sizes. Due to the wider shape of the pant leg, they are easy on the curves, incredibly comfortable to wear, and the high waist makes your legs look like they go on forever! If you don't like the pleats on either side, just sew them closed or remove them from of the pattern. These pants are both an easy-to-wear classic and right on-trend with the waistline moving up. Enjoy!

Materials

denim, buttons, interfacing

    doing my coat (its getting cold!)

    The pants look really good on the model, but I don't know if I could wear those. But I'm definitly curious about the other members creations!

    waiting for the picture man!

    omg! I am SO excited about these! I love the waistline, but I'm not so sure about the pant legs though, they look a bit big. I'll either take them in a bit or make a cute pair of shorts! ugh I just saw that they're charging $4!!! We'll see...

    enjoying the spring sunshine

    Wow, these pants are really cool. I'd be keen to try them with a normal waistline but keeping the pleats. Hmm, first I need to put a dent in my fabric stash so that I can justify going fabric shopping again...That may take a while.

    fitting jochen

    I was loathing the high-waisted movement until just now. Amazing. I have to make these right after I finish Liz.

    I need to get them. love them. love those pleats. I think there is a good potential in it for making it either pretty or chic, or both!

    I think it has realy potential, especially since the high waist is fitted like the bodice on a dress to flatter, rather than as they were back in the day... still not sure whether I could pull them off though. Maybe in the summer once I've gotten back into a little better shape. I love the shape of the pockets though, along with the bodice in the back they look really stylish.

    out for lunch

    SO CUTE! Would they look OK on those of us in the "pear-shaped" category?? Opinions? Anyone?

    procrastinating, of course.

    I like these, I am a big fan of wide leg pants, but I don't think those pleats in the front just where the hips turn into thighs would flatter me.

    happy, happy, happy!

    I really like these - the high waist, the wide leg. Nice.

    They look beautiful on the model! The curve in the back is lovely. I think that style would require being tall and having a defined waist.

    i'm ok with the pleats and the width, but there is something else not really my taste ... i don't like the buttons and i think i would put that hipline not halfway between the waist and crotch but higher, at 1/3 from the waist or so.
