Full details

Troubleshooting

Trousers appear too long or too short.

This is a petite-specific fit. If too long, consider professional hemming. If too short, ensure you are referring to the correct size and consider alternative styles if a petite cut is not suitable.

Satin fabric looks creased.

Gently steam the trousers on a low setting or iron on the reverse side on a cool iron setting. Ensure the garment is fully dry before steaming or ironing.

Fabric snagged or pulled.
