I just did a small hack to my Corina pants in linen and I absolutely love it. I omitted the fly front, and the darts. I extended the width of the waist. I did not use the contour waistband but instead cut a straight band and used
elastic and a draw string
I also lengthened it by 2 inches to make a 3” hem.
