The Balloon Trouser Workshop (8-14 yrs)

Spend three creative days with us designing and making your own pair of on-trend balloon trousers — one of this summer’s most stylish statement pieces ☀️

Inspired by what teens are wearing right now, oversized trousers (also known as parachute pants or balloon trousers) have been everywhere this spring. While the name might sound a little unexpected, the look is anything but — these trousers are effortlessly cool, versatile, and perfect for everyday wear or dressing up.

This brand new workshop builds on our signature sweatpants pattern, which was a huge success over autumn and winter, now reimagined for the warmer months using lightweight, breathable fabrics. Students can choose from a range of cottons, linens, and trouser materials to create their own oversized silhouette.

There’s also the option to customise your design with features like pockets, drawstrings, or zips, depending on sewing experience, ability, and time.
Suitable for ages 8–14, this workshop is open to beginners as well as those with some sewing experience — with plenty of guidance throughout to help bring each design to life.

Please note: Tickets are available to book up until 2 days before the event starts.
Bookings cannot be made within 48 hours of the event, as we need time to plan our workshops and confirm our freelance tutors.
We kindly ask that you book as far in advance as possible — it really helps us organise everything and ensure there are enough materials for everyone.
