Opal Trousers notions

32 - 60 (EU)   0 - 28 (US)   4 - 32 (UK) 

Opal’s surname? Delightful! These culottes/trousers are a pretty quick project that’s also a real win for your wardrobe. They fit perfectly and look a treat. The waistband fits comfortably and attractively, and the trouser legs drape gracefully at the hips, flaring elegantly towards the hem. Opal works well in woven and knit fabrics. With a simple side seam zip, you're set.

Fabric advice

Opal works great in a variety of different fabrics. Stiffer fabrics, like denim, cotton, corduroy, etc. are all fantastic. Or you could create a different sort of visual appeal with a soft drape (woollen) fabric. Think gabardine, flannel, crepe, and more. And prints? Well, why not start with Glen check, tartan, or houndstooth? Opal is also perfect in knit fabrics (in which case, omit the zip).
