Maison Fauve - Ronsard Trousers
About the Ronsard Trousers
This might be the jeans you've been dreaming of. The Ronsard jeans are such a flattering shape, have a perfect fit and retro charm. These have a wide-leg cut, but the hips are well fitted and the waist is mid-rise, giving the garment very flattering and comfortable fit. The pattern has all the classic jeans elements to ensure the perfect finishing touches:
- topstitching
- raised back
- beautiful patch pockets
- coin pocket
The Fabric
Choose medium-weight fabrics (200 to 350g/m2) such as denim, cotton canvas, or gabardine. If you want to sew the garment in a fabric that contains a little elastane, do not exceed 2% elastane or elastic fiber in the composition and sew one size smaller than the size chosen for a fabric without elastane.
