FAQs

What material are these trousers made from?

They are made from a compact stretch fabric with delicate lace panel detailing.

How do I care for the lace detailing?

The lace requires delicate care. Dry cleaning is recommended. Avoid machine washing and harsh detergents to prevent damage.

What is the inseam length?

The trousers have an approximate inseam length of 110cm.

Are these suitable for everyday wear?

While comfortable due to the stretch fabric, their sophisticated design and delicate lace make them best suited for formal occasions, events, or professional settings rather than casual everyday wear.

How should I style these trousers?

They can be styled with a fitted top, blouse, or silk camisole. Pair with heels for a dramatic effect. For professional settings, add a blazer.

Do the trousers run true to size?

It is recommended to consult a size guide or try them on if possible, as fit can vary. The stretch fabric provides some flexibility.

Can I machine wash these trousers?

Troubleshooting

Trousers appear creased

Gently steam on a low setting or dry clean. Avoid high heat ironing, especially on lace areas.

Lace detail appears snagged or damaged

Handle with extreme care during wear and cleaning. For minor snags, professional repair might be an option. Avoid washing machines or harsh detergents.

Fit is slightly off at the waist or length

Consider professional tailoring for a customized fit. The stretch fabric offers some flexibility, but professional alteration can perfect the drape.

White fabric shows minor marks

Spot clean gently with a mild detergent and damp cloth, testing on an inconspicuous area first. For significant marks, professional dry cleaning is advised.
