WHAT'S IN A NAME?

Sarouels are Jarvis's favourite style of pants. He owns several other styles, including jeans, but he just does not like wearing them.


They have so many names; harem pants, MC Hammer Pants, dimije, tshalvar, schalwar, salwar kameez, kaccha, patiala salwar, shintijan, sirwal, sharovary, Turkish trousers, aladdin pants, balloon pants, drop crotch pants, pantaloons, pluderhose, zouave, and pumphose, the list goes on. But for Jarvis they mean comfort and style.


I made these for Jarvis to wear to the Tenneriffe Festival on Saturday, with a matching bow tie. (I forgot to put the tie on him. Also our model was too interested in saying the letters on the Wool Store building and would not show us the back with has a cute pocket detail). Sarouels and matching bow tie available for only $30, plus postage.
