How To Turn SKIRTS into PANTS! (EASY HACK!) | DIY w/ Orly Shani

i liked the wide leg blue ones the best but they are all a great idea!

Where have you been all my life??? I can not wait to try these ideas!!! <3 <3 <3

I did the reverse: turned pants into skirts for my elderly mother. Stretch pants with stretch waistbands.

I don’t understand why I have gone my whole life without doing that 😮

😮 WOW THIS IT'S HORRIBLE

Cute! ❤

Perfect! I'm a novice sewer and I've been looking for a way to turn skirts into trousers because I seldom wear skirts. Those stretchy black ones looked fantastic!

Love-love-love that Billabong pant. And when you tied up the ankle it got even better.

thanks for this, saved my beginner cosplayer ass lol!

Brilliant and inspiring

🥰 So cute, love them.

You should use the cut-out to make a gusset in the crotch to improve the fit.

I would love to see you create a jumpsuit with snaps on the leg/crotch inseam so that you wouldn't have to take the jumpsuit off when going to the bathroom which is why I don't wear jumpsuits. I don't like having to completely undress every time I need to pee!

Nice job, they all turned out cute! The second one is my favorite, they give me concert or beachy vibes!

Found you from the clock app! Thank you for the video tutorial! 😊

GENIUS ❤

😮😮😮😮

Fantastic 😍

How low do you need to start cutting?

Very cool. Thanks, Orly!

Where is the cream colored sweater from?—love it!

Yes! I have a piece I’ve been wanting to do this to, but couldn’t find a tutorial I liked. Thank you Orly!

I absolutely LOVE the simplicity & ease of your ideas/ designs for someone (like me) with zero experience!! It makes it fun & attainable, THANK YOU!!

Love the black ones 🥰

you edit out how you did the crotch part...

Really cute! I love the blk and why striped skirt/pants. Great mods!

Love this. Just be mindful, this technique only works it your body type is slender.

Here is a little tip that I use for getting the "crotch" correct. Use a sloper or pattern that you know works for you. Lay the garment so front and back seam are opposite (laying left and right - so you will not cut them out at the same time), match up your front waist with the pattern and cut that crotch out follow the depth of the pattern and do the same on the back. This way you know the final fit will work. I love seeing your creativity - gives me lots of idea. Thanks.

New sub. Love your style but also how straight to the point your vids are.

For stupids only 😁 I just ruined my favourite dress - because I jumped to the opportunity of wearing my dress much more. HOWEVER - after cutting and sowing - I forgot to consider the possibility of entering my dress from the top. Not possible. I feel so stupid. Maybe I’m not the only one who is sometimes to
Spontaneous. Remember just because you do stupid things doesn’t mean that you ARE stupid.

LOVE the second pair. Looks amazing.

This is my first time finding you and because I'm on my phone I'm having a really hard time subscribing but I have like this video and watched it twice. I have always wanted to turn dresses and skirts and I did it the long way because I did it from my mindset. Oh my goodness thank you this is good for me!

Excellent

How do you make pant flys? I want to pee out of them.

You’re a genius!!!

They look great! I am going to try this!

You can take the cut offs and make a diamond gusset to put in the crotch, it should help them fit a little more like regular pants.

This video is EXACTLY what I was looking for, simple and easy too. So excited to try this!

Liked it all except for the goucho leggins

I feel sorry for the great skirts...

I’m going to ‘thrift’ some stuff from the back of my closet!

I might have missed it, but how do you determine where you cut (where the inseam would start)? I have quite a few skirts that I don't wear that would make awesome wide leg pants. Thank you. Brilliant!

💗

Wow, very innovative

Very cool idea!

NICE Sneakers, my friend!

oh, the trick with the front and back rise is EXTRA!

EXACTLY! And about my level of sewing!
I find lots of cute skirts that i wouldn't wear but as PANTS....YES!

Oh my God, that jumpsuit though! 😍 So clever, so practical and totally stylish! L O V E it! You just got yourself a new subbie! 🎉☀️

Now you need to tell us how to fix our bodies to look like yours…..
