Sizing Info Plus

We advise to choose by your waist size. There is no stretch in the waist but you can move the button if needed.

This means that there is some margin if your measurements don't come up exactly like our size guide.

For more information on fit and sizing please visit our size guide. The measurements refer to 'your' body not the garment itself. Please choose the size that most reflects your measurements.

Customers praised these 1930s-style culottes as "fabulous" and "authentic reproduction" with excellent quality fabric. The ecru color is versatile and pairs well with various tops. Shoppers loved the skirt-like appearance with culotte security. Sizing runs slightly small, with some recommending sizing up. The linen creases easily but is acceptable for the fabric type.

  • The most authentic reproduction culottes you can find!
  • They hang like a skirt which I like but you also have the security of them being Culottes.
  • Fabric, feel and fit is great, really well made and size spot on.

Great

Great culottes! I found they come up a little small, particularly around the waist, so I’d recommend sizing up if you’re between sizes. The fabric does crease quite quickly, but overall I really like them and will definitely buy another pair when they’re available in my size again.Zx

Great!

When I received the email prompting me to review these culottes, I was actually wearing them, which I thought was quite funny. I have both last year's darker sandy coloured pair, and this year's ecru ones. They are fabulous. So classy, practical, comfortable and easy to style. They do crease easily due to the linen content, but with linen you can get away with it.

Ecru culottes

How excited I was to receive the Ecru Culottes and I was not disappointed. They fit true to size and look amazing on . They hang like a skirt which I like but you also have the security of them being Culottes. I’ve had so many compliments from people and when they realise they are Culottes they are amazed . The fabric is soft , not scratchy and the colour is perfect to go with various colour tops . I would purchase another pair if there were more colour options. Thanks House of Foxy .

I'm just loving these! Wasn't sure whether they'd be any good but they have totally exceeded my expectations. Fabric, feel and fit is great, really well made and size spot on. A perfect pair of culottes for all seasons and great for riding your bike!

Quality

Great quality. Best to go up a size as normally on the smaller side.

The perfect culotte!

I couldn't wait to get these culottes and they are fantastic! I did have to move the buttons a bit, because they were a bit big (but the next size smaller would have been too small), otherwise they are perfect. I bought the sailor top to wear with them but have paired them with a vintage printed linen top as well.

best culottes in town

The most authentic reproduction culottes you can find! The shape, the material, the colour...So happy you released them this summer! I`m always a size 18 in trousers of the brand and these also fit perfect in 18. Ecru is so versatile, they will match will many other colours!
