These playful, flowing pants are incredibly comfortable. The legs are open, but the fabric falls generously over the legs so that they are never exposed, even when you are cycling or dancing. An asset for the summer. The pants fall to ankle lenght and can be combined with any color top or blouse. The elastic at the waist at the back runs nicely into a waistband at the front.
Weaving linen by hand is an intensive work and requires quite a bit of experience. Linen is made from flax. Flax naturally contains woody parts that must first be removed. This is done by breaking the fibers when the flax is thoroughly dry. The brittle structure of the fiber makes weaving linen a specialized job.
The craftsmanship of linen weaving in India is mainly found in weaving communities in West Bengal. The region where the famous muslin was woven centuries ago. This very soft and refined cotton is now extinct, but the mastery of fine weaving with cotton, silk and linen is still very much alive.
These pants are a creation of the Sunbird label that works exclusively with hand-woven fabrics of organic origin. Each garment is cut by hand and sewn on simple sewing machines in a small design studio in New Delhi. Sunbird works on the basis of fair play and fair pay principles. The team of designer, tailor, seamstress and embroiderer works closely together on small collections on an equal basis.
