Buy the Portobello Trousers sewing pattern from Nina Lee. Simple and elegant, the high-waisted Portobello Trousers are a cinch to make and work in a variety of fabrics for year-round comfort. Make them in a lightweight wool and you’re work-ready in the winter; linens and rayons will keep you cool and effortlessly chic in the summer. The wide-legged silhouette is bang on trend and can be made to evoke the glamour of the ‘40s starlet or the relaxed vibe of a ‘70s bohemian. Pair with fine jumpers, soft blouses or cropped tops. The trousers are constructed with front pleats and back darts, and a centre-back concealed zip (avoiding any tricky fly construction!), along with the all-important in-seam pockets.

I made the Nina Lee Portobello trousers up in a lovely woven viscose I got from Stoff & Sti in last year's sale. I used around 2m of the fabric.
The pattern came together really well and was clearly explained. It's a fairly simple sew, with pleats on the front trouser and darts on the back. You also stitch the waistband in place in the ditch, although you can do hand slipstitches if you prefer that (I'm generally too lazy!)
I'm really pleased with the finished trousers; the pleats are slightly outside my comfort zone, but overall they're just so floaty and cool, I don't care! Also, pockets!
