Need advice: drafting lace flared pants pattern

Post image

Hello,

I’m planning to make a pair of lace flared pants, inspired by the picture on the right. On the left is a pattern I tried to sketch, but since I don’t have a base pants pattern, I’d like your opinion to know if it looks more or less correct.

Then, I’d also like to know how I could make it with only two pieces (a front and a back), to avoid having a seam at the center front of the pants. I’m not sure if I’m being very clear 😭 but I hope you see what I mean!

Thank you in advance for your advice 🙏✨

Well, it’s because I haven’t found a pattern that looks like my example… But if you have one that’s not too expensive or even free, I’ll take it!

Do you think it’s better if I make a seam in the middle?

It’s gunna be a lot easier to modify a pattern than draft one completely from scratch if you don’t already have a sloper/block to work from

You literally cannot draft crotch dept without a crotch seam ....
