I just got two new pairs of pants, with a very special label in the back: Made by Mor.
My mum has always been somewhat of a sewing-whizz and this summer she took her talents to a new high and have sewn pants, jump-suits, tops, dresses and the likes with an unstoppable enthusiasm.
When I saw her in one of her recent creations - a trés chic patterned loose-fitting jump-suit - I was sold and asked where she had got it. She told me, whit just a hint of pride, that she had made it her self and then I was immediately off to the nearest textile shop, found two kinds of fabric for her to have fun with.
Last week she presented me with the results: to amazingly well-fitting pairs of loose pants with just the right amount of slack. They are perfect both as casual wear and for a night out, mixed with high heels. I have literally not been out of them since I got them.
And the best part? For sure, the surprise label in the back, which I am proud to show off to everyone: Made by Mor.
If you want to try making your own, most textile shops sell patterns, and you just fit it to your size.
The fabrics are not too expensive. I bought a super-thin black cotton kind and a slightly thicker shiny grey/black/white variation and paid less than 200 kr.
You only need to by the length of your legs + a buffer for seams. C'est ca!
