champagne gold trousers

I sewed a pair of trousers.
The title of this post may let you imagine something bold and spectacle to wear for certain special occasion, but they're not. I don't have any plan for attending parties, I even don't have a chance to pass by the doors of banquet hall where people dress brightly in the nice outfits. My trousers are for everyday use.

Anyway, I've longed for trousers that have something like thick embroideries, metallic content, laces, sequins, etc... anything with statements in their texture without deep colors for some long time. People might have thought differently though, I was thinking it was a cool idea. Recently I met this lace fabric for my plan that had been incubated for too long and my job was done on it pretty quickly.

 I used a very sparse gold lace fabric layering onto trouser weight cream beige polyester fabric. I treated them as one sheet for making these slightly tapered straight cut trousers. I chose a very clean silhouette for them, to make the specialness of the fabric stand out. Of course I wanted them simple enough to migrate in my quiet life relatively nicely too ;)

I think you can see I really love them. This was probably one of the biggest let-off-steams of my swelling ball of plan for sewing, and I am very glad with that I tried. In my opinion they're less spectacle than I imagined from the raw materials I used. That is rather a bonus.

Maybe I can think that my gold trousers can make any day a special day for me, and they themselves are the occasion (you're suggested to voluntarily laugh at the writer here).



Do you have special plans that you've been secretly incubating in your mind? I have one more.

Happy sewing to you all!!

Love,
yoshimi
