FAQs

What does 'petite' mean in sizing?

Petite sizing refers to garments specifically proportioned for individuals with a shorter stature, typically including a shorter inseam and adjusted body length.

What kind of shoes pair best with these bootcut trousers?

The 70cm inseam is designed to pair well with heels, such as pumps, block heels, or kitten heels, to create an elongating effect. Flats may result in the trousers appearing too long.

Can these trousers be worn for casual occasions?

While designed for polished looks, they can be dressed down slightly with a fine knit sweater and smart loafers, but their tailored nature lends itself best to smart-casual or formal settings.

What material are these trousers made of?

They are made from a smooth viscose-blend fabric with stretch for comfort and movement.

How should I care for the white viscose-blend fabric?

Follow the care label. Generally, gentle machine wash or hand wash in cool water, avoid bleach, and air dry flat or hang. Iron on a low setting if necessary.

What is the inseam length of these trousers?

The inseam length is 70cm.

Are these trousers suitable for someone who is not petite but has a similar leg length requirement?

While designed for petite proportions, individuals with shorter legs who prefer a 70cm inseam might find them suitable, but the overall fit through the body and waist may differ.

Troubleshooting

Trousers appear wrinkled after washing.

Ensure you are following the care label instructions. Try a cool, gentle cycle wash and air dry. If needed, iron on a low setting while the fabric is slightly damp.

Fabric has lost its shape.

Avoid high heat drying. Lay flat to dry after washing. If the shape is significantly altered, consider professional dry cleaning for delicate fabrics like viscose blends.

White fabric shows slight discoloration.

Wash with similar light-colored garments only. Use a mild detergent. For stubborn marks, consider a fabric-specific stain remover suitable for white viscose blends, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Flattering bootcut silhouette that elongates the legs.
  • Comfortable due to the stretch viscose-blend fabric.
  • High-rise waist offers a sophisticated and secure fit.
  • Tailored for petite frames, ensuring a precise fit.
  • Versatile for both professional and formal events.

Cons

  • May require specific shoe heights to achieve the intended look.
  • Viscose-blend fabric might require specific care to maintain shape.
  • Color (White) may be prone to showing stains.
  • Limited to a specific inseam length (70cm) which may not suit all petite heights.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trousers require no setup as they are ready-to-wear. They are designed to be compatible with a wide range of women's tops and footwear, particularly heels. For care, it is recommended to follow the specific instructions on the garment's care label. Typically, for viscose blends, gentle machine washing on a cool setting or hand washing is advised. Avoid bleach and tumble drying; instead, lay flat or hang to dry to maintain the fabric's integrity and shape. Iron on a low heat setting if necessary. Given the white color, consider washing with like colors to prevent any color transfer.
