I don't often wear trousers because I have never found a pair that fitted nicely and flattered my (slightly odd) shape. I am an advanced beginner to intermediate amateur seamstress, and these were my first trousers with fly and zip.

Shorts: Thread; one 1/2″ (13 mm) button; one 7″ (18 cm) zipper; 1/4 yd (23 cm) of lightweight interfacing for waistband (optional). Unlike normal pants, where the waistband actually sits below the waist, forcing fat and loose skin upwards to create the dreaded 'muffin-top' and even restricting your movement. Hollywood Pants are all about shape and comfort, so a waist-controlling shapewear is now your go-to legging but still with all that shape-loving control where you need it.

Trousers: Medium weight, soft fabrics with drape such as wool gabardine or challis, cotton or corduroy. It should say “…push the fly SHIELD out of the way” since you are going to be stitching the zipper the the facing.For the Shorts, choose soft or slightly crisp, medium-weight fabrics such as wool challis, cotton, linen, rayon, or blends. The emergence of pants as acceptable public attire for women began in the early 1930, largely due to the enormous influence of the movies and the high-profile movie stars. One thing I think would really help the novice or intermediate sewist is more info on why the pattern may be adjusted and how to make the adjustments.
