Horse Riding Hakama Pants
Garment
Design
This skirt is a mix of ghurka pants and the umanori (horse riding hakama) which is an divided hakama.
Patternmaking
I started with the fitted pants block I made from my time at SCC. I added the pleating found in the hakama and added a front fly. The closing mechanism was tthe gurkha closing pants mechanism which I combined with the Koshi-Ita. For the pockets, I shaped them to allude to the Sasa-Hida.
