FAQs
What occasions are these trousers suitable for?
These trousers are ideal for formal events such as weddings, races, graduation ceremonies, and evening celebrations due to their satin finish and elegant wide-leg design.
Can I wear these trousers with flat shoes?
While designed to be floor-grazing and best styled with heels, you could potentially wear them with very flat, elegant shoes if the length is adjusted or if you prefer a more relaxed drape. However, they are intended for heels.
How do I care for the satin fabric?
It is generally recommended to dry clean satin garments to preserve their quality and finish. Always check the specific care label on the garment for the most accurate instructions. Avoid high heat when ironing.
What does 'petite' sizing mean?
Petite sizing refers to garments designed for individuals with a shorter inseam and often a slightly shorter torso. These trousers are cut with a shorter length to accommodate petite frames.
Can I buy the matching blazer separately?
These trousers are part of a coord set. You would need to check if the matching blazer is available as a separate item within the Wallis collection.
What material are the trousers made from?
The trousers are made from a satin-finish woven fabric.
Are these trousers lined?
Yes, the trousers are lined for a comfortable, smooth finish that helps them hold their shape.
Troubleshooting
Trousers appear too long.
As these are petite trousers, they are designed to be floor-grazing. Pairing with heels will help achieve the intended silhouette. If still too long, consider professional hemming.
Satin fabric loses its sheen.
This can happen with improper washing or ironing. Always follow the care label instructions, and use a cool iron on the reverse side.
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
This may indicate the fabric has been over-agitated or not rinsed properly. Dry cleaning is the safest option for maintaining softness.
Minor creases are difficult to remove.
Use a steam iron on a low setting, ironing from the reverse side. Ensure the iron is not too hot, as this can damage the satin.
