The way you make those shorts is to use a thin strip of latex to serve as a piece of elastic going down the middle of the butt.  Sorry that I don't have any patterns that I can reference, but that is the gist of how they make it curve inward in the middle.

Many thanks for your answer, I will try it that way.

I hope you have figured this out, but if not I have something for you to think about. Just like in your photo you had a pair of shorts then you added a thong or a body suit over top. That made your butty shorts. What you have to do is the same thing with latex. The only difference is that the thong has to be of thicker latex than the shorts so it pulls the shorts latex into the butt. But that creates another problem, chafing or skin irritation because of the folds in the shorts in the butt area.

@Chloe, @mlurk - As a follow up to OP, I'm trying to make a set of leggings for the wife.  She dislikes the "boxiness" even the thinnest, tightest latex gives her butt and has been hunting for a pair that better frame her... assets? 

My idea is to combine a thicker material as a thong base, use thinner for the leg panels and dart the curviest areas to still allow for a single piece hip - ankle. 

Does this sound like a reasonable plan, or will it be a bunch of extra work for little to no benefit?

Thanks for any advice

The best way to do this is to add a zipper to the crotch and rear. About 24" long. You want something that does not stretch, but be careful, if it is too tight it might chaff the skin where you don't want it to ( a permanent camel toe while wearing these). An added benefit to this is that the wearer can relieve themselves while wearing these tights
