| Almost there ... almost there ... |
Cut two lengths of ¾" black elastic (or 1", if you prefer) at least a yard long.
Topstitch them to the inside of the back waistband about halfway between the side seams and center back seams through all layers.
Put on your trousers, cross the suspender straps at the back (forming an X shape), pull them over your shoulders, and determine the length necessary for a comfortable (and effective) fit, taking into account that they'll be likewise sewn to the underside of the front waistband facing (and thus extend to about 2" beneath the top of the trousers' front).
Cut the elastic suspenders down to size and fasten them to the front in the same manner as done previously in the back, remembering to cross the suspender straps at the back.
