FAQs

What material are these trousers made from?

The trousers are made from a structured crepe fabric, which is a polyester blend known for its smooth, refined finish and ability to hold shape.

Are these trousers suitable for everyday wear?

These trousers are designed primarily for occasion wear due to their sophisticated cut and fabric. While versatile for formal events, they are not typically considered everyday casual wear.

What type of shoes should I wear with these trousers?

Given the floor-grazing length, heels such as pointed-toe pumps, block heels, or stilettos are recommended to ensure the trousers drape correctly and create an elongated silhouette.

How should I clean these trousers?

Professional dry cleaning is the recommended method to maintain the fabric's structure and finish. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying.

Can I alter the length of the trousers?

Yes, the length can be altered by a professional tailor if needed, particularly for petite individuals. However, be mindful of the original design intention for a floor-grazing look.

What makes the silhouette 'wide leg'?

The wide leg silhouette means the trousers are cut generously from the hip or thigh down to the hem, creating a fluid, sweeping shape rather than a close fit.

How do the front pleats contribute to the design?

The deep front pleats at the high waist add volume and movement, enhancing the tailored character of the trousers and contributing to their architectural quality.

Troubleshooting

Trousers appear too long

The trousers are designed with a floor-grazing length intended to be worn with heels. If they are too long even with your intended footwear, professional hemming may be required.

Fabric creasing significantly

While the structured crepe resists minor creasing, significant wrinkles can be addressed with a professional dry clean or by steaming on a low setting, ensuring the iron or steamer does not directly contact the fabric.

Pleats losing their sharpness

Maintain the sharpness of the pleats through professional dry cleaning. Avoid ironing directly on the pleats; steam carefully if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

  • Avoid machine washing or tumble drying to preserve the fabric's structure and finish.

Styling Compatibility:

  • These trousers pair best with fitted tops to balance the volume of the wide leg.
