the pants, for everyone who asked to see them
still thinking about the brainrot that fast fashion has caused in people, like i made this pair of pants that are black and white with a cool flowery design, and an acquaintance saw them and said "wow i'd pay like 20 dollars for you to make me a pair" and i could barely think with how utterly horrified i was at that; i told them that 20 dollars wouldn't even cover the materials, let alone the hours of work that went into cutting, sewing, ironing, hemming, altering, etc. they just had this look on their face when i told them that, when i said i wouldn't make them a pair for even 100 dollars because that was still way too low of an amount, a look that said "you're crazy for thinking that those cost 100 dollars" and maybe i am crazy but holy shit, 20 dollars for a pair of handmade, durable, lined pants fitted specifically to your measurements? 20 dollars for upwards of 60 hours of work? 20 dollars for several yards of high-quality fabric, thread, and buttons? 20 dollars???
#i need to switch the front pockets because i dislike the lack of colour continuity#but overall they’re absolutely gorgeous#wide legged and fitted to my exact waist measurement#i also made cactus pants that are cinched at the ankle but suuupperr funky and amazing#and also soft i made them out of a softer flannel that’s usually used for pyjamas#but they’re not lined and we’re done so hastily that i’d feel bad charging more than $20 for them lol
