Fits on the natural waist with a wide waist band. So comfy.
Very wide leg style is great for dancing and was very typical in the 30s & 40s during the rise of sports casual styles.
Leg length: 32"

Care: 30 degrees machine wash
Manufactured in the UK
These trousers fit on the natural waist but do have a nice wide waist band which can fit slightly high on some people. The fabric has some stretch but this is more a comfort stretch.
This is definately a style that will create shape but will require correct underwear ;-)

Excellent service: ordered yesterday, arrived today. I was concerned size 14 would not fit as I am really a size 16 according to the size chart. But they fit really well and hang beautifully, just the right length for a pair of heels. Beautifully flowing fabric. Can't wait to wear them out.
Stylish trousers in a most practical colour for the winter months. Classically great with a 40's blouse but equally good with a jumper when those chilly days demand.
