I have been looking and looking and am unable to find on. Most of my pants suits (Business Casual) come with jackets and pants that have elastic in the back with a flat front and a waistband.
Would anyone happen to know a pattern that is currently available that has this option or how a very basic seamstress would adapt a pattern?
I have done this before. When you are putting in your elastic only put it in the back casing. Leave the front flat. I just used a basic pattern not a special one. Email me if you have questions.
Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
if i were using a pattern intended for elastic all the way around, i would add darts to shape the front a bit. otherwise, i see no reason why they wouldn't fit. a bit of fashion trivia...the detail you descibed is called a hollywood waistband.
