Harem Pants PDF Sewing Pattern – Pleated Wide-Leg Trousers with Side Pockets & Hidden Zipper (Sizes 36–44)

A relaxed, high-waisted harem-style trouser with a soft balloon silhouette that tapers gently toward the ankle. Two pleats sit on each side of the front for volume and drape, in-seam side pockets keep the front clean and functional, and the pants close at the side seam with a hidden (invisible) zipper. Two darts at the center back — one on the right, one on the left — shape the waistband for a smooth, comfortable fit. A versatile wardrobe staple that looks equally good tucked in with a blouse or paired with a cropped top.

How to Print Your Sewing Patterns Correctly

Note:

All pattern files are digital downloads only — no physical items will be shipped.

Please read the description carefully before purchase.

Best suited to stable, non-stretch woven fabrics — lightweight denim, linen, poplin, gabardine, and similar mid-weight wovens all work beautifully. Not recommended for knit/jersey fabrics, as this pattern is not drafted for stretch.
Also needed:

Interfacing for the waistband
1 invisible zipper, 25 cm (10")
Lightweight stay/interfacing strip, 40 cm (16") — for the zipper area

Sizes 36–44, each size drafted individually (not graded/nested) with seam allowances already included. Check the size chart and choose the size that matches your own measurements.

How to Measure

• Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
• Waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your waist (just above the belly button).
• Hip: Measure around the fullest part of your hips, about 20 cm (8”) below your waistline.

Notes

• This chart is based on woven fabrics (non-stretch). For stretchy fabrics, you may size down.
• All Modella Patterns include seam allowance unless otherwise stated.
• Compare your body measurements with the finished garment measurements in product photos for the best fit.

Intermediate. Comfortable for anyone who has sewn a waistband, an invisible zipper, or darts before. If you've made a pair of pants with a waistband already, this will feel like an easy, enjoyable next project
