Description
Experience the epitome of ultra-cool style infused with a delightful nod to the seventies era through the Jessa trousers or shorts - destined to swiftly claim a top spot in your favourites collection. The trousers boast a full-length design with gracefully wide and slightly flared legs, whereas the shorts feature turn-up hems. Both versions secure seamlessly with a concealed front zip fly.
Designed to accentuate your figure, the high waist, elegantly curved waistband, and meticulously crafted back darts work harmoniously to complement your posterior. The triangle tab fastening adds a distinctive touch, while the inclusion of deep patch pockets and a charming faux pocket flap will undoubtedly capture your heart as you embark on your sewing journey.
Fear not, for Jessa arrives accompanied by instructions that demystify sewing terminology, valuable stitching insights, and a visual feast of colour photographs guiding you through each stage. These resources collectively empower you to fashion splendid attire that fills you with a sense of accomplishment and pride in being the creator.
