Description
Centuries of trade along historic routes brought trousers from Asia, traversing the Middle East to Africa. This pattern features three timeless designs from Turkey, Africa, and India. Perfect for casual wear or cultural attire, with elastic or drawstring waist and ankle variations. Includes historical context and embroidery designs.
Turkish Pants feature a gathered waist and ankles. African Sarouelles, sized for men and women, offer a simple drawstring waist and tapered legs with gussets. Indian Pants feature gathered legs and wide hip panels, embellished with machine embroidery.
Recommended Fabric
For the Turkish pants, opt for lightweight, luxurious fabrics with drape like rayon challis, chiffon, or gauze. For African and Indian pants, select medium-weight fabrics such as cotton, silk, rayon, wool, or blends.
