Love these pants!! Loved the waist band construction. I made a size 8 without modification except for a 1” addition in length to get a great 7/8th length pant for my 5’11” frame. Definitely plan to make more. In the photos the pants are paired with the Vicki Top also from StyleArc. https://www.instagram.com/p/CCU5bmWA-3K/

I love these trousers. I added 3 cm to the rise although my elastic was wider than recommended to they probably ended up with 2.5 increase to the rise. I was apprehenive about the elastic waist but as other reviewers have said they are very flattering. I made them in a lovely cotton sateen and plan to make more. Highly recommend.
LOVE these pants! I have made 3 pairs now, one 7/8 length & 2 Full length. The fit and style are fantastic. I am normally a Size 14/16 and I made the 16.

Love these pants – will be making them again shortly. I did find that my normal SA size was a little big, so I will be sizing down for the next pair.

Always had slim leg trousers but as I was going on holiday decided to try these for a change, first time I have used style arc trouser pattern and I’m glad I did.
The pattern was easy to follow and the result great, I used my normal size 16 the only alteration was the leg length I took about five inches out but I suppose it all depends on your finished leg preference, I’m 5ft 4 in.
Super comfy.👍

The most perfect pair of cropped wide leg pants I could imagine. I love everything about them – the width of the trouser leg, the slant pockets, the belt the elasticated waist which sits flat at the front – just perfect. Quick and easy to make (despite getting a little bit confused as to the direction of the pleat).
The only alteration I had to make is to shorten the length (which I always have to do as I am 5’2″). Love them! *rushes off to make a hundred more pairs of them*
Very nice comfortable pants, I like the loose fitting, with elastic waist and side tucks, I included 3 buttons just for show centre front.
Made them in light corduroy.

This pant pattern runs a little big- my usual size is a 10 -which I made and then took them in 1/2 “each side plus lowering the waistband-now I love them and have made two more pair

How Do I Know What Size I Am?
Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.
When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:
A. Shoulder Breadth
Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.
B. Upper Arm Girth
This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.
C. Bust
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.
D. Waist
This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.
E. Hip
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
