Size of the bag
Size of the bag will be tricky to explain….
Width when draped and hung on the model at the widest middle is 17-19″ (40-50cm)
From very top of the handle to very bottom 28-30″ (70-75cm)
The bag has a lining.
What you’ll need
Both narrow and wide jean legs can be used here, but the total width of the 4 legs (aligned next to each other) should be min of 75-80cm. The wider — the better and easier to work with 🙂
The jeans MUST BE NOT STRETCHY!!!
For the lining you will need two rectangles of 50x70cm plus some estra for pockets of your choice.
