Drafting Women’s Palazzo Pants-Two Variations
In this lesson we will teach you how to draft two variations of women’s palazzo pants using the pant foundation block drafted in our lesson, Basic Pants Sloper. A Palazzo pant is a wide legged, pajama-like pant that can either be flat or gathered at the waist. You will learn to draft both versions, one with an inseam pocket. Palazzo pants are often used in eveningwear, loungewear and casualwear.
The sloper that you will need for this lesson can be found and drafted in our lesson, Basic Pants Sloper.
