Harry High Pants

I have made these pants and the top using Advance pattern 7899, I'm guessing it is from the 50's.  The pattern describes this pattern as being sports separates.  How glamorous!  
I have no idea what the fabric is, as it was given to me, but it has a polyester content for sure.  The pants called for 2 zips, but I bought a longer one and only needed the one.  I love them and will need to find more appropriate fabric.
When I first made the top it was too big, this is the smaller version, it's a tad too small.  I can still breath and move so not all is lost.  The pattern called for it to be fully lined, but I opted to use bias binding on the openings instead.

This will be a spring staple here in sunny Bris Vegas for sure.  Check out my blog for more Australian spring sewing to come.
