That's why medieval braies had a large surplus of fabric over the waistline, which was to be tucked into the belt to keep them in place.

The perk of this model are those rolls of fabric at the waist, which many have seen, but few tried to recreate. The double seams are ultimately neat and reliable, no overlocker. Their pattern is an ode to geometric simplicity: two large trouser legs plus a rectangle for a crotch piece. Made of fine linen, in your choice of white or natural.

From the skirt it scoops to be thinner, finishing at the center of your bust in a series of tiny pleats.
