Greg, I think it may be doable with one of the macro's in my mesh 
generation package http://code.google.com/p/mmgm/ or Tor-Olavs NURBS 
macro's. All depends on how you brake down the trousers in a few basic 
shapes that can be defined by four splines that you then stich together.

I'll try to describe the brake down: one spline defines the outer seam of 
the trousers, at the lower end connected to a half circle spline for the 
"foot hole". The top of de seam sline is connected to a quarter circle 
that is the belt section of the trousers. Last spline would be the inner 
seam. These four splines define a surface that form a quarter of the 
trousers.
