1 Download the template, then print and follow the cutting guide. With right sides together, matching the side and centre back edges, pin and sew the bodice backs to the trouser backs at the waist. Trim the seam, neaten the edges and press downwards.

2 Insert the concealed zip, then align the teeth with the 1.5cm seam allowance, pin and stitch in place. Position the teeth into the groove of the foot at the beginning of the stitching, leaving 5cm of the zip unsewn at the base. Match the waist seams, then stitch the centre back trouser seam from the zip base to the inside leg using a zipper foot. Trim this part of the seam and neaten the edges. Cut the seam to the stitching line at the base of the zip, then press to one side.

3 Create the front bodice darts and press downwards. Pin and stitch the centre front seam of the trouser, then trim the seam allowance, neaten the edge and press to one side. Stitch the pocket facings to the side edge of the trouser fronts. Trim the seam and press the facing to the wrong side of the trouser front, then topstitch close to the pocket edge.
