Sewing Pattern Tutorial: How to Sew the Andrea Trousers?
The ANDREA trousers are a sewing pattern rich in couture-inspired details, all about perfect proportions. With a nod to classic menswear, the design features sharp front pleats and a structured, slightly androgynous silhouette. The ankle-length leg and back darts offer shape and balance, while the waistband sits just right - neither too high nor too low. At the front, delicate welt pockets add finesse, while the back showcases patch pockets with swallow-shaped detailing - a subtle signature of the Maison Fauve style.
ANDREA strikes the ideal balance between bold design and timeless elegance, and includes several refined techniques covered in our detailed video tutorial:
-
Sew welt pockets with clean finishes
-
Create stitched pleats
-
Sew waist darts precisely
-
Construct both inset and patch pockets
-
Insert an invisible side zip
