Answer 1

open the side seems or even the rear seam and add material the back seam is usually easiest and even has a little extra fabric making that seem. you will have to remove the waist band and add material to it also. depending on how much bigger and the type of pants you could pleat the added material to help hide the stitching you opened just make a new center seem and pleat the added to hide old seem.

Answer 4

What type of waistband is it? Is it elastic? If so, just stretch the pants over the back of a chair, that will make the waist bigger. It it is like, denim or not an elastic waistband, wash them in cold water, then put the waistband part of the pants around something bigger than your waist. Fabric stretches easier when it's wet.

Answer 5

Don't put them in the dryer. Maybe your mom can alter them for you? Aside from that, there really aren't many other options. If there was a way to make pants fits you perfectly without taking them to a seamstress, well, we would buy less pants and we would all look perfect in out jeans. I have wondered if it is possible for a long time as well, and really I have come to the conclusion that there really just isn't much you can do about pants that don't fit anymore.

Answer 6

Provided you wear a shirt that would cover the waist band, you can loop a rubber bad through the button hole & wrap it around the button. It will only give you a couple inches unless you're leaving the zipper down though.



You could also use a waistband stretcher (http://www.bakertowne.com/catalog/item.php?unid=269) but it won't give you much either.

Answer 7

wash them and then when you take them out of the dryer, stretch the waist a little bit, then let them air dry!

i tried that once. try to stretch it out and don't put it in the washing machine a lot.... the washing machine shrinks clothes, which will make it worse. hope i helped!

You can always make pants smaller, but you can't really make pants bigger. Sorry. You cut cut slits in the waistband to make it more comfy - vertical slits. But that's your option.
