Measuring

Bust

Circumference around your ribcage at the fullest part of your bust. This is usually nipple height.

Waist

This can be a little confusing because a lot of people don’t actually know where their natural waist is. It is not always the smallest part of your torso if you don’t happen to have an hourglass shape. Your waist is located halfway between the end of your ribs and the top of your hip bones.

Hips

The hip measurement is not literally taken from around your hip bones, rather, the hip measurement indicates the fullest part around your bottom.

THE TROUSERS

Jackie is a semi tailored loose-fit trouser designed to sit comfortably just below the natural waist, featuring pleats at the waist, slanted pockets and a gently tapered leg. Inspired by the easy fit menswear slacks of the nineties, and nodding fondly also to early modern women’s trouser styles of the thirties, these trousers are designed for women, but have proven to look and fit great on men too! Jackie looks equally chic dressed down with a chunky sweater and beat up sneaks, or glammed up with a silk shirt and killer heels!

Multi-sized sewing pattern from UK 6 / US 2 up to UK 24 / US 20

This pattern can be printed on 4x A0 copyshop files, or 63x A4 / US letter sheets.

Fabric
What you need
Finished measurements

Medium weight woven fabrics with some body or weighty drape will bring out the best in Jackie. Opt for wool suiting, wool crepe, tweed, linen, flannel and the like.

For our featured samples, we used a black & burgundy houndstooth wool from New Craft House, a black & white houndstooth wool from Rainbow Fabrics, a natural linen from UK Fabrics and a pastel stripe brushed viscose flannel (source unknown).
