Pleats opening

Hello everyone!


Made a pair of pleated trousers for my wife. I was hoping to get some advice. It seems that the pleats are bending or bowing towards the middle. More so with the right pleat. I didn't notice it during the first fitting and it may already have been occurring then. But the alterations I applied after the fitting were: 1) take in waist and seat 2) shorten back rise.


Did I take in seat too much or is the pleat depth just not deep enough? How would I remedy this?

Right pleat opens up more than the left:

Not noticeable in this picture than it is in person:

What Rory said.

Not to mention: the cloth hast only been laying around and I am sure, the cloth will "work" over the next weeks or even longer.


Goed gedaan, mooi stukje werk!
