Sharp creases down front of trousers

Options
and the back too. I am sure you can get something to help keep the creases in. I have laundry starch but I think theres something else.
Need it for my Katharine Hepburn style BIG trousers - not quite the right effect without a knife sharp crease ;)

    What we used to do was turn the trousers inside out - run a line of a slightly damp bar of soap down the crease, turn them back the right way and then iron them.

    Worked a treat :)

    I remember doing that many, many years ago. Beware though, if you do it too often the soap builds up & next time you are caught out in the rain eerrrr!
