Design
The Balloon Pants Sewing Pattern is perfect for anyone who wants to sew comfortable pants with a modern, relaxed and unique silhouette. The wide cut gives the pants a soft, flowing shape and plenty of movement, while the elasticated hems create the signature balloon effect.
The pants feature an elastic waistband with two rows of topstitching and a decorative drawstring tie at the front. This makes them comfortable to wear and easy to style. The side seam pockets add a practical detail and give the pants a casual everyday feel.
Depending on your fabric choice, you can create very different looks. Sew them in cotton poplin, viscose, Tencel, linen or other lightweight woven fabrics for a breezy summer version. Softer, more fluid fabrics will create an especially relaxed and contemporary look.
This sewing pattern is ideal if you want to sew wide-leg pants, make your own balloon pants or create a comfortable pair of elastic waist pants with a modern statement silhouette.
