FAQs
Are these trousers suitable for hot weather?

What shoes pair well with wide-leg trousers?
Block heels, wedges, pointed-toe flats, and even clean sneakers can complement the wide-leg silhouette.
How should I care for the linen fabric?
Generally, hand wash in cold water or use a gentle machine cycle. Avoid high heat drying and iron while damp.
Will these trousers crease easily?
Linen is naturally prone to wrinkling. Gentle ironing while damp or steaming will help minimize creases.
Can I wear these for formal events?

What does 'petite' sizing mean?

Troubleshooting
Trousers are too long despite being petite.
Consult a tailor for professional hemming, or consider wearing shoes with a higher heel.
Linen fabric appears very wrinkled.
Iron the trousers while slightly damp on a medium heat setting, or use a steamer. Ensure proper hanging and storage.
Colour fading after washing.
Wash in cold water with mild detergent, inside out. Avoid direct sunlight during drying.

Ensure you are using a gentle detergent and avoiding harsh chemicals. Air drying and a gentle iron can help soften the fabric.

Care Instructions:
- Washing: It is recommended to check the specific care label, but linen trousers often benefit from cold hand washing or a gentle machine wash cycle with similar colours.
- Drying: Avoid tumble drying. Hang to air dry, preferably away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Gently reshape while damp.
- Ironing: Iron on a medium heat setting while the garment is still slightly damp, or use a steam iron, to best manage wrinkles. A pressing cloth may be beneficial.
- Storage: Store folded or on a padded hanger to maintain shape and prevent creasing.
