Slip into heavenly culottes tailored to your body as you transition into fall. One of the hero pieces of your wardrobe, culottes are comfortable as trousers and as graceful as a skirt. Pair it with a top that ‘just’ covers the waistband such as a crop top or tank top. Work, brunch, errands, lounging or chilling. We have you covered.

The pattern includes options for culottes or a skirt in knee to ankle length and every length in between… pleats or gathers, high waisted yoga waistband or elastic waistband. Upgrade with functional good sized pockets or a beautiful tie back bow tie.

FABRIC REQUIREMENTS

This pattern can be made in knit or woven.
4.5 meters of medium weight fabric with flowy drape.

KNIT: For a dressier look we recommend light to medium weight ponte, scuba, athletic knit. For a casual look try cotton lycra/spandex, slub, a lightweight french terry. The high waistband requires at least a 50% two way stretch and good recovery so can only be made in knit.

WOVEN: Flowy wovens such as linen and viscose linen can be used for the skirt but woven skirts must be paired with the elastic waistband option only.
