Handmade High Waist Ruffled Pantaloon Pants- Ultra Rare Faded 1940s Tobacco Raw Silk
These pants are made from a vintage raw silk fabric in this gorgeous faded natural dyed raw silk. I would say this is a light weight fabric. This pant is made from a vintage palazzo pant pattern and features a wide leg, full ruffle trim, high waist, and elastic waist band to fit a variety of sizes. It also has inseam pockets for maximum comfort and utility :).
Color Scheme: Tobacco and tan
Approx Age: This fabric was probably from the 1940s-1950s, handmade recently
Fabric: no tags, but the tobacco colored fabric is definitely raw silk, I had to add extra fabric to get a full ruffle, I got the tan fabric from a quilter who was retiring and would say this is a cotton muslin
