Named Patterns-Aina Trousers & Culottes

AINA TROUSERS & CULOTTES 

The Aina pattern includes two variations: Classic trousers with a slightly tapered ankle-length leg, and trendy culottes. Both of these lightly fitted trousers have a high rise, fly zipper closure, front pockets and patch pockets in the back. The front waist is finished with a classic and clean waistband with a decorative button closure at the sides. The back waist has a relaxed elastic detail, making the trousers more comfortable and easier to fit. Either variation can be sewn with or without the decorative topstitching.

FABRIC SUGGESTIONS

Choose a light to medium weight non-stretch trousering, or a fabric with approximately 5 – 10% stretch. Linen, hemp and cotton trouserings, as well as a light denim are all good options.
