What are bell bottom pants
Bell-bottoms, or flares, are a stylish pair of pants that flare from the knees downward to form a bell-like shape (unlike wide leg pant that have a relaxed fit with a straight cut from thigh to ankle) . The bell bottoms that we wear today have their roots in the sailor's pant leg and are having a comeback now. It is said that they were designed in the early 19th century as a way to protect the trousers while sailors were washing down the decks of ships. They gained extreme popularity in the 60s and 70s and have been a huge hit with the fashion crowd ever since.

Just scroll down for lots of pretty & clear illustrations and easy-to-follow instructions on how to sew and transform you bell bottom pants pattern into a forever-favourite pair of trousers. First, let's take a quick look at the things you need to make your pants
What You'll Need:
- Your PDF Anelise bell bottom pants pattern
- Fabric
- Fusible Interlining for waistband and flys
- 16cm pants zipper
- 1 button
- scissors
- color matching thread
Seam Allowances:
- 2.5 cm for hem

Materials Suggestions
medium weight woven materials with 3-5% elasticity. Our sample was made out of bi-stretch woven material but we think a 4 way stretch fabric could also be an option.
Note on fabric consumption
Please check the table below for the amount of fabric required for your size, based on a useful width of 140-150cm. If you have a different width or design (think stripes, plaids etc), you'll need to adjust the placements of the pieces so that it fits your available width.
Check your contraction!
Before cutting, check the contraction of your chosen material. To do this, iron steam the raw material at its maximum heat recommendation. This will ensure that your finished garment will retain its intended size after initial wash.
