If any of these feel familiar, then read on. We've got really good news for you!
Learning how to fit trousers doesn’t have to be stressful.
When you’re new to the world of fitting, it can feel like you have SO MUCH TO LEARN! You can drive yourself nuts trying to figure out how to choose a size, how to understand the bumps and wrinkles, how to know what to adjust and by how much – all techniques required to sew a pair of trousers that fit and flatter your body!
To make matters worse, there are so many resources with differing instructions and techniques, all whilst you’re trying to make a flat pattern fit your 3D body. Can someone just show you how to make it fit you, already?!
We get it. Because we used to feel like that too!
So, we found our own method of approaching the trouser fitting process whilst breaking it down step by step.
When it comes to trouser fitting, there are so many techniques and measurements to remember. It can be overwhelming, and you might find yourself struggling to keep track of it all. You may have tried writing down the adjustments you’ve made in the past or creating notes for each pattern, but it just doesn’t seem to work on your next pattern.
We created our own approach to trouser fitting that focuses on understanding exactly how your body will fit inside each pattern and making as many adjustments as possible before you even cut out your muslin. By doing so, you’ll be able to rule out basic length and width issues so that you can more clearly see which parts of your body require more attention.
So let go of the stress and frustration of trying to figure out each new pattern and use our approach to creating trousers that fit you well every time.
