FAQs

These Culotte Side Seam Trousers are made from wool, offering a sophisticated feel and drape.

Troubleshooting

Trousers appear wrinkled or creased.

Wool can crease. Use a garment steamer to gently remove wrinkles, or iron on a low setting with a pressing cloth.

Fabric feels slightly scratchy against the skin.

Wear a thin base layer, such as leggings or slips, underneath. Gentle washing (if hand washing is an option) with wool-specific conditioner can also sometimes soften the fibers over time.

Fabric seems to be pilling (small balls of fiber on the surface).

Pilling can occur with natural fibers like wool. Use a fabric shaver or de-piller to gently remove pills. Regular care helps minimize this.

Trousers are losing their shape after washing.

Ensure you are following the recommended care instructions, especially regarding drying. Laying flat to dry is crucial for wool to maintain its shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Being a clothing item, these trousers require no specific 'setup'. Simply wear them as part of your chosen outfit.

Compatibility:

  • Footwear: Excellently pairs with ankle boots, flats, and taller boots due to its cropped length.
  • Tops: Complements fitted turtlenecks, blouses, and structured blazers. Its high-waist design makes it suitable for tucking in tops.
  • Accessories: Versatile enough for simple, elegant accessories to bolder statement pieces, depending on the desired look.

Care Instructions:

Proper care is essential to maintain the quality and longevity of your wool culotte trousers.

  1. Check Garment Label: Always refer to the specific care instructions on the inner garment label first, as specific wool blends may have unique requirements.
  2. Washing: Generally, wool garments require gentle care.
  • Dry Cleaning: This is often the recommended method for wool trousers to preserve shape and fabric integrity.
  • Hand Washing: If hand washing, use cold water and a wool-specific detergent. Gently squeeze, do not wring or twist.
  1. Drying: Lay flat to dry on a clean towel, reshaping as needed. Avoid hanging wet wool garments, as this can cause stretching. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can shrink or damage wool fibers.
  2. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting, using a pressing cloth. Avoid direct heat on the wool.
  3. Storage: Store folded in a cool, dry place. Avoid hanging for extended periods, as this can cause the garment to lose shape.
