Create your own pair of beautifully tailored trousers with the Closet Core Patterns Mitchell Trousers PDF Sewing Pattern. Inspired by classic pleated trousers, Mitchell combines elegant details with a comfortable high-waisted fit to create a versatile handmade wardrobe staple.

The Mitchell Trousers feature a high-rise silhouette, fly-front zipper and a hidden waistband facing for a clean, continuous finish through the waist and rise. Deep front pleats create shape and comfort, while angled pockets add a unique design detail. Choose between a hidden hook and bar closure or classic button fastening.

View A features a tapered ankle-length leg for a streamlined everyday trouser, while View B offers a full-length wide leg with adjustable waist straps finished with D-rings or sliders.

Designed for intermediate sewists, the Mitchell Trousers are a rewarding project for anyone looking to sew their own tailored trousers. Choose structured fabrics for a classic suiting-inspired look or softer fabrics for a more relaxed drape.
