BiBi 2tone Cord Rib Waist Band Side Pocket Pants — Measuring, Materials, Model & Care

How to measure

Follow these steps to get accurate garment measurements. You can measure the pants laid flat (recommended) or measure your body and compare to garment measurements. When measuring a flat garment, multiply the flat measurement by 2 to get the full circumference.

1. Waist (flat): Lay the pants flat and smooth the waistband without stretching. Measure straight across the top from seam to seam. For the ribbed elastic waistband, record both the relaxed (unstretched) measurement and the measurement at comfortable full stretch. Multiply the flat measurement by 2 for circumference (e.g. 34 cm flat = 68 cm waist).
2. Hips: Measure across the fullest part of the seat/hip (typically 7–10 cm / 3–4 in below the crotch seam) from seam to seam. Multiply by 2 to get the hip circumference.
3. Inseam: Measure from the crotch seam (where front and back meet) straight down the inside leg to the hem.
4. Outseam: Measure from the top of the waistband down the side seam to the hem.
5. Front rise: Measure from the top of the front waistband to the crotch seam.
6. Thigh: Measure across the pant 2–3 cm (under 1 in) below the crotch seam, seam to seam, then multiply by 2.
7. Leg opening / Hem: Measure straight across the bottom hem, seam to seam, then multiply by 2.

Measurement tips: use a soft tape, keep it level, record in cm and inches (1 in = 2.54 cm), and allow typical ease of 1–4 cm (½–1¾ in) depending on the desired fit. Compare your body measurements to garment measurements to choose size.

Materials

Typical composition and characteristics for this style (check the sewn label for exact fibre content of your item):

• Main fabric (corduroy): Fine‑wale cord — generally a cotton‑rich fabric with a small elastane content (typical example: ~98% cotton, 2% elastane). Soft, velvety pile; mid‑weight and breathable with a little give.
• Waistband (rib): Cotton‑rich rib knit with elastane (typical example: ~95% cotton, 5% elastane) for stretch and recovery.
• Pocket lining: Lightweight cotton or cotton blend for comfort.

Fabric features: textured cord pile for warmth and visual interest, elastic rib waist for comfort and a flexible fit. Always refer to the product label for exact composition.

Model information

Reference model details (example):

• Height: 175 cm / 5'9"
• Bust: 82 cm • Waist: 62 cm • Hips: 89 cm
• Wearing size: S (use this as a reference; the rib waistband offers flexibility)

Fit note: the elastic rib waistband allows some size flexibility — if between sizes and you prefer a closer fit choose the smaller size; for a more relaxed fit choose the larger size.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Turn the pants inside out before washing to protect the cord pile and color.
• Machine wash cold (≤30°C / 86°F) on a gentle or delicate cycle, or hand wash.
• Use a mild detergent; avoid bleach and strong stain removers.
• Do not use fabric softener — it can flatten the cord pile and reduce elasticity.
• Wash with similar colors to prevent dye transfer.
• Remove promptly from the wash and reshape while damp to avoid misshaping.
• Air dry flat or hang to dry. Avoid high‑heat tumble drying; if necessary, tumble dry very briefly on low and remove immediately.
• Steam is the preferred way to remove creases and revive nap. If ironing, turn inside out, use low heat, and place a cloth between the iron and fabric; avoid pressing the cord pile directly.
• To restore pile after wear or washing, gently steam and brush in the direction of the wales with a soft garment brush.
• Store folded to avoid overstretching the waistband; if hanging, use wide, padded hangers and do not compress the garment on the rail.
• Dry cleaning is an option — always follow the sewn care label instructions for the specific garment.

Style tips

• Casual: tuck in a simple tee and add white sneakers for a clean, everyday look.
• Smart‑casual: pair with a lightweight knit or silk blouse tucked in and loafers or low heels for a polished outfit.
• Cold weather: layer with an oversized sweater and ankle boots; add a long coat for a chic winter combo.
• Show the waist detail: wear cropped tops or tuck in your top to highlight the rib waistband and create definition.
• Balance proportions: if the pants have a relaxed leg, pair with a more fitted top; for a slim leg, try an oversized top or jacket.
• Texture play: mix the cord's velvety pile with smooth leather, satin, or knits for contrast and visual interest.
• 2‑tone coordination: choose a top in one of the two tones for a cohesive look, or keep tops neutral to let the pants stand out.
• Shoes: sneakers, loafers, mules or ankle boots all work—choose heel height to adjust the overall silhouette.
