The Paola Trousers are a chic, contemporary pattern with a relaxed yet considered silhouette. Designed with a subtle balloon-leg shape that gently tapers towards the hem, they create a natural fold and a beautifully modern line. Comfortable, stylish and easy to wear, Paola is a versatile wardrobe staple that works just as well for relaxed everyday dressing as it does for smarter, more polished outfits.
With a fly zip, button fastening, inset pockets and darts, this pattern includes lovely trouser-making details while still keeping the finished garment wearable and practical. Paola works beautifully in linen, cotton, lightweight denim and other woven fabrics with enough structure to hold the shape of the leg. Many of the garments displayed throughout the Ciao Patterns collection have been made using Fabrics by Hilary, showcasing how beautifully this design works in quality Italian linens and dressmaking fabrics.
Ciao Patterns are designed with clarity in mind. Each size is colour coded for easy tracing, while unique line styles ensure sizes remain easy to distinguish when printed in black and white.
