Do you know how uninteresting and even weird pictures of pants are? You can’t put them on a dress form…they look odd on the hanger…the best I could do was to put them on myself. They don’t fit, of course, since I am not James, but it’s better than nothing!
They want for finishing at the cuffs (you can see), and the trim and buttons. They are fully lined (yay!), and drop-front, with triple-stitching on all seams so they will be extra sturdy for all the dancing and acrobatic James is going to be doing!

Even though I understand why pictures of pants are weird, I think the breeches are looking very good. The color is yummy. Can't want to see them finished!

March 2, 2010 at 6:47 AMJames, when/where are you going to be wearing this again? You are going to be petted at least, since that's the effect velvet has on lots of women. 🙂

Those fabrics are so lush together.

March 2, 2010 at 9:41 PMlol, girl in man clothes, yes, doesn't quite work! James is going to look great and proper, though – for April Gaskells!

March 3, 2010 at 11:35 PMOh, for sure I gasped in a good way, your Grace. 😉
I'm sure this outfit will look even more ubersexlich on James. We'll wait and see. ^^

March 5, 2010 at 12:38 AMamazing trews!! But, as I say, I'd prefer green! James, you're going to be petted away to a greasy spot!! I have a male friend who is particularly tickled by girls in velvet. So it goes both ways!! (oh, and Laur, you could do an 18thC version of Twelfth Night which involves a heap of cross-dressing!)
