standing on their own

in 2006, I had access to a huge pile of industrial grade pvc, the kind that they heat shrink to make waterproof lining for truck beds,... It was incredibly easy to work with and very forgiving. ... the funny part of it all was that these three pairs of pants were actually standing up on their own,... nothing supporting them.
not very comfortable at all for any part of the body that had to move,... but as long as they were relax fit, they were fine for pants,... and the stuff was amazing for making corsets...
