Open front wrap trousers sewing pattern?

I want so sew something between these two trousers but struggling to find a pattern that I can use. I do NOT have the skill to draft a pattern and any changes to an existing pattern need to be minimal!

Anyone able to help me find something that is similar?

By coincidence, I was googling patterns for these a day or so ago. When you say you want something between those two, what elements of each did you want?

I came across quite a few patterns in my Google search (some paper, some on Etsy/blogs and some you tube tutorials)

I was looking at these recently. This was the best one I came across.

i like the curved hem of the green blue ones but would go for a linen fabric. Not as long as the white ones though - I short they would trail on the ground for me!

Putting the curve in the hem and shortening them shouldn't be a major pattern amendment.

There seem to be proper wrap ones like the white ones and mock wrap ones like the green. I think I prefer the mock ones.

Thanks. This looks like it could work - I would go with the drawstring option as don’t want to faff with a zip!

I might try these. They are wrap ones but elasticated so are easy to pull down to go to the toilet!

I've made these before, very quick and easy to make

I've just made a pair using the patternless "cut a U shape out of two rectangles and sew together" method. I'm rather impressed! I found some drapey viscose in my extensive stash.

I say "made" but I've not finished the top yet - it's held together with clips as I want to fold the top over and put an elastic waistband in rather than have them as actual wrap ones.

These look like they are what I want. Thank you.
