Wrap pants.
Hands down these are my favorite out of all my projects. They can be casual, they can be fancy. Change the fabric and it can be such a versatile piece for your wardrobe. Did I mention they are so freaking easy to make?
This was the tutorial I used and to see it for yourself, you can view this video. Just know you’ll have to adjust your measurements to fit your body. It took me two attempts on scrap fabrics before I figured out the sweet spot for my plus size body. (I am a 20/22 for reference.)
Important notes:
1. Fabrics with more structure are easier to work with. My grey and black pair are made from a silky rayon/spandex blend and it is so slippery it tends to slide off my hips. Keep that in mind when you’re choosing your fabrics. My green pair are a poplin material and they hold up so much better.
2. If you have a stretchy material that cuts clean you do not need to hem the raw edges. On my grey and black pair I left edges raw at the bottom because they won’t fray.
