Inspiration...Slim Legged Pants

 It is time to start thinking about late winter or early spring.  I think have found the perfect pant.

This is the Bleecker Slim-Legged Pant by Lafayette New York 148.  Price tag: $698.00.  Details:  9-inch rise, 30 1/2-inch inseam, 39-inch outseam, 14-inch leg opening; sits just below the natural waist; slim fit legs; center crease front and back; side zip; acetate/polyester bleand; dry clean.

I really like the pant but I really do not like the price.  I found three patterns options:

This is the Sabrina Slims pdf pattern by Love Notions.  

 This is Pants..Perfected! by Pamela's Patterns.

This is the Clover Pants pdf pattern by Seamwork.

All three of these patterns have similar features.  Even though the Sabrina Slims were my first pattern thought, the Clover Pants and Pants Perfected patterns are probably a little closer to the inspiration photo.  

I do not really want to get similar fabric to the inspiration photo just because of the care needed.  All three pants can be made from stretch wovens with varying degrees of stretch.  Two of the pants can be made from knits.

Happy Stitching!
