Handmade High Waist Pantaloon Pants-Rare 1940s Seersucker Cotton with Scalloped Filet Crochet Trim
Handmade High Waist Pantaloon Pants-Rare 1940s Seersucker Cotton with Scalloped Filet Crochet Trim
These pants are made from a vintage seersucker cotton sheet (it had a very old tag from sears probably 1940s) and a piece of scalloped filet crochet trim that I got from a trunk of antique linens and would date these from the 1880s-1910s. I would say this is a very light weight fabric. This pant is made from a vintage palazzo pant pattern and features a wide leg, high waist, and elastic waist band to fit a variety of sizes. It also has inseam pockets for maximum comfort and utility :).
