NEW! This fabulous culottes are similar in style to our pleated shorts with their deep pleats, side button fastening and top stitch detail but in a flattering longer length and inspired by original photos and patterns.

Perfect for cycling and a variety of sporting activities!

Culottes are pleated throughout (3 on each side - including the centre front gusset pleat). They create a flattering wide leg and to the naked eye look equally like a pleated 30s skirt.

These fit on the natural waist and have 4 white button side fastening - a lovely asymetic detail. Made in natural fibres (see below)

Key features:-

- 4 pleats
- top stitching detail
- 4 button side fastening
- deep gusset
- length

Fabric is 50% cotton 50% rami 
*Ramie is a renewable plant fibre that's derived from a plant in the nettle family and has a similar look/feel to linen. It is biodegradable, making it sustainable and is one of the strongest natural fibres.

Length: approx 70cm to 76cm relating to size *longer on higher sizes

Flattering length

An excellent alternative to shorts as they cover more occasions. Great fit, true to size (I am usually size 8 and got them in 8). Nice texture and 100% natural fibres is a definite plus. Rather pricey, even though I got them on sale (I think? Perhaps they weren’t marked down?)

Great work friendly vintage sporty culottes option!

I like these culottes even better than the shorts version, which I own in ecru. They're perfect for work and fit well. I really love that they are pure natural fibers and not a synthetic blend. They are a perfect match with the 40s striped top, and less costumey than the very charming sailor top that was launched with them. I took my regular UK 16 with a 33 waist and 44 hip. The waist stretches to loose a bit but I need that size for my hip otherwise the pleats would look funny. It also makes it easier to tuck tops in.

Versatile vintage suitable for many occasions

Lovely culottes - I really like style of the shorts but these longer-length are more flattering for my legs! Can be dressed up or down. Comfortable and wearable. More colours would be great!
