Outfit ideas for the Vide Knit Pants

Here are some outfit ideas for the Vide Knit Pants Sewing Pattern. Depending on the fabric, you can make them look very dressed up or go for a more casual vibe.

Dressed up

Here I made the Vide Pants from a fairly stable Ponte di Roma (a rayon, nylon, lycra-mix). I paired them with a long-sleeved version of my Gurli Top Sewing Pattern using a rayon/lycra jersey with a geometrical pattern. I think this combo looks really polished, yet it’s all made with knit fabric!

Casual mix

For this pair of Vide Knit Pants I used a softer navy Courtelle jersey (a rayon, polyester, lycra-mix) with more drape than the black fabric. This fabric choice makes the Vide pants look a bit more casual, especially when it’s paired with a simple striped t-shirt.

To make the look a bit more polished I added a felted wool version of my Eivy Cardigan Sewing Pattern, the wool gives the cardigan a jacket-like quality.

Relaxed casual

This is how you find me lounging around at home. I’m wearing the same Courtelle jersey pants here, but I added a silk jersey short-sleeve version of the Gurli Top Sewing Pattern.

With the felted wool Eivy Cardigan it looks a little more polished, but still super comfortable.

Retro vibes

The swinging sixties was my inspiration for this version of the Vide pants. I used a grey marled double-knit fabric (a rayon, nylon, lycra-mix) with some stability, but still soft. The stitched pintucks are what add the retro vibe, as well as the loafers I’m wearing in the photo.

Paired with a rib-knit top or turtle-neck to create a classic style with a nod to the past. Love this version of the Vide pants.

Hope you found some ideas for how to style and sew your Vide pants!
