FAQs

What occasions are these trousers best suited for?

These trousers are ideal for formal and semi-formal occasions such as weddings, evening events, races, or any event requiring sophisticated attire.

What material are the trousers made from?

The trousers are made from a structured crepe fabric, which is 100% polyester.

How should I care for these trousers?

Dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the fabric's structure and refine finish. Iron on a low heat setting if necessary.

What is the fit like through the leg?

The trousers feature a loose fit through the leg, providing ease of movement while maintaining a sophisticated, wide-leg silhouette.

What is the rise of the waistband?

The trousers have a high-rise waistband that sits at the natural waist for a polished and defined finish.

Can these trousers be altered for length?

Yes, like most tailored garments, these trousers can be professionally altered for length if needed, though this should be done carefully to maintain the intended drape.

Troubleshooting

Trousers appear too long

Ensure you are wearing appropriate footwear, such as heels or platform shoes, that complements the trousers' length. Professional tailoring may be an option if significant alteration is needed.

Fabric feels stiff

This is characteristic of the structured crepe fabric designed to hold its shape. The fabric will soften slightly with wear, but its inherent structure is part of the design.

Creasing after storage

Hang the trousers and allow them to naturally release creases. If persistent, a light steam or a low-heat iron with a pressing cloth can be used. Professional dry cleaning is also recommended.
