Description
Oliver is a men's pair of semi-fitted trousers, straight in shape with a gradual taper towards the hem. They exhibit pressed crease lines on both the front and back. Waist darts shape the back, while the front showcases functional slash pockets and waistline pleats. These trousers are equipped with a waistband that includes belt loops and sits just below the natural waistline. Fastened by a classic fly front zipper and a hook and bar eye closure on the waistband, Oliver's length extends just below the ankles.

Sadly this pattern by Vikisews is very confusing. It is a pattern for men but has measurements for women's sizes? I now have two of these patterns as I wanted different sizes but the patterns appear identical. Some of the instructions are very strange and some markings are absent. A shame I’ll not buy any more of these type patterns.
