In order to add the ease necessary to pull them on past your
hips (without a zipper), the waist has to be expanded to the
hip measurement, *plus a little*. Usually, it's sufficient
to leave darts unsewn, and draw a straight line up from the
full hip point to the waist, at the side seams (and CB and
CF it they taper at all) and add a casing.
