Sewing Pattern | Pants Rita | E-Book | Sizes XXS-7XL | with Sewing Instructions
The Rita pants have wide, straight-cut legs that create a classic and timeless silhouette, suitable for most body types. The high-waisted contour waistband ensures a comfortable fit, accentuating the natural waist. The pants feature deep side pockets and are closed with an invisible side zipper for an elegant and seamless look. These pants can also be beautifully worn as shorts. Ideal for any occasion, the Rita pants offer both style and functionality.
Sew these pants from woven fabrics or stretch fabrics, the choice is entirely yours. For the long pants, I recommend lightweight crepe fabrics due to their fluid drape and low wrinkle resistance. For the shorts, I recommend medium-weight linen or pants fabrics with about 4% elastane.

Material recommendation:
Long Pants: Use lightweight to medium-weight fabrics such as viscose, linen, cotton, silk, or chiffon. Crêpe versions of these fabrics are wrinkle-resistant and particularly well-suited for pants.
Shorts: Use medium-weight pants fabrics with elastane or pure cotton and linen fabrics.
Interfacing: To reinforce the waistband, pocket openings, and side seams (zipper), you will need a lightweight woven interfacing, such as Vlieseline® G 700/710 or Pellon® SF101 Shape-Flex®.
Pocket Lining: Optionally, especially for light fabrics, use a nude-colored pocket lining!
