Petite Military Button Detail Wide Leg Trouser - Dorothy Perkins - Black - Size UK 16

These trousers are made from a smooth woven Polyester fabric, providing comfort and a touch of stretch.

While primarily designed for casual and smart-casual occasions, their sophisticated detailing and flattering cut can make them suitable for certain semi-formal or dressy casual events when styled appropriately.

Machine wash them cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid using bleach, and tumble dry on a low setting or air dry.

They feature a wide-leg silhouette and a high-waisted design, offering a relaxed, comfortable, and flattering fit tailored for petite figures.

The product description highlights them as 'button detail along the waistband,' indicating they are primarily decorative, adding a stylish flair to the design.

The polyester fabric is versatile, but in very hot and humid conditions, it may not be as breathable as natural fibers like cotton or linen. They are generally suitable for most seasons.

Polyester is generally wrinkle-resistant, but if wrinkles occur, use a steamer or iron on a cool setting. Ensure the trousers are not overcrowded in the washing machine or dryer.

Periodically check the stitching on the military-inspired buttons. If any appear loose, reinforce them with a needle and thread before they come off entirely.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If you are between sizes or prefer a very loose drape, consider going up one size. The fabric does have a touch of stretch for comfort.

Always wash these black trousers with like colors using a detergent designed for dark garments. Wash on a cold cycle to help preserve the color vibrancy over time.

While designed for petite frames, individual leg lengths vary. If the length is slightly off, a professional tailor can hem them to your ideal length while maintaining the original finish.
