NandaDncer and Perizaad, actually, there are two pairs of pants. One is made of stretch material (I mixed bellydance moves with contemporary and modern dance in this number and needed the costume to allow for big movements). The second one is two separate "legs" with drapes at the bottoms.
The drapes are also functional: at first the veils are hidden inside the stretch pants (the drapes help to hide them better) and in the middle of the dance I take the veils out of my costume.
I thought long about all this:)))
PS: I also used sagats (zills) covered by fabric as weights for pois - maybe somebody will find this idea useful
