FAQs
What type of fabric are these trousers made from?
The trousers are made from a twill woven silk fabric, known for its excellent drape and movement.
How should I care for these silk trousers?
It is recommended to dry clean these trousers only. If ironing is needed, use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric.
What is the best way to style the striking print?
To let the print stand out, pair the trousers with simpler, solid-colored tops, such as a crisp white shirt or a neutral silk camisole. Minimalist accessories and footwear are also recommended.
Are these trousers suitable for formal occasions?
Yes, their elegant silhouette, luxurious fabric, and dramatic length make them suitable for many formal and semi-formal events, especially evening occasions when paired with appropriate attire.
What does 'floor-sweeping length' mean?
This refers to the trousers being very long, designed to almost touch the floor. They may require hemming to achieve the perfect length depending on your height and the shoes you intend to wear.
What is the fit like around the waist?
The trousers feature a high-rise waistband, designed to sit at your natural waistline for a flattering and secure fit.
Troubleshooting
Trousers do not drape as expected
Ensure the trousers are stored properly, allowing them to hang freely. If creased, follow care instructions for ironing on a cool setting on the reverse side.
Print appears faded after cleaning
This may indicate improper cleaning. Always follow 'Dry Clean Only' instructions. Avoid washing or excessive exposure to direct sunlight.
Trousers feel restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The twill woven fabric offers some movement, but if a tighter fit is chosen, it may feel less flexible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trousers require no setup as they are a ready-to-wear garment. Compatibility is high for styling, as they can be paired with a variety of tops and footwear, depending on the desired look. For care, given the silk twill material, it is recommended to adhere to the following:
- Dry Clean Only: To maintain the integrity and quality of the silk and the print, professional dry cleaning is the recommended method.
- Cool Iron: If ironing is necessary, use a cool iron setting and iron on the reverse side of the fabric to protect the printed surface.
- Avoid Direct Heat: Do not expose the fabric to direct heat sources, such as tumble dryers or direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as this can damage the silk fibers and fade the colors.
