Black and White Striped Cotton Wide-Leg High Waist Pants | Black / S 100100681841872

How to measure

Use a soft measuring tape and measure over light clothing or underwear. Keep the tape parallel to the floor and relaxed — not pulled tight. Record measurements in inches or centimeters and compare to the product's garment measurements where available.

Measure your body

• Waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your torso (natural waist). For high-waist styles, measure where you expect the waistband to sit — usually just above the belly button.
• Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips/butt with feet together.
• Inseam: Measure from the crotch along the inside leg to the desired hem length.
• Thigh: Measure around the fullest part of the thigh about 1"–2" (2.5–5 cm) below the crotch.
• Leg opening: Measure around the hem of one leg (important for wide-leg styling and how the pant will sit over shoes).

Measure a similar pair of pants (garment measurement)

• Laid-flat waist: Lay the pants flat, smooth without stretching, measure across the waistband, then double that number for the circumference.
• Front & back rise: Measure from the top of the waistband to the crotch seam (front rise) and from the top back waistband to crotch seam (back rise).
• Inseam (garment): Measure from the crotch seam to the hem along the inside leg.
• Thigh & leg opening: Measure across the thigh and hem while the pant is laid flat and double the numbers.

Tip: If you are between sizes, choose the larger size for a relaxed wide-leg fit or the smaller size for a more tailored silhouette. Always compare your measurements to the product’s size chart.

Materials

Main fabric: Cotton (as named in the product title). Typical properties:

• Fiber: Cotton — breathable, comfortable, and durable for everyday wear.
• Weight & hand: Midweight woven cotton that holds structure for a crisp wide-leg shape while remaining soft against the skin.
• Stretch: Generally non-stretch (unless a small percentage of elastane is included; check the garment tag for exact composition).
• Construction: Unlined for breathability; finished seams and standard hardware (zipper/button) — see product label for trim details.

Why it matters: Cotton is breathable and easy to care for, but it can shrink with high heat — follow the care instructions to maintain fit and stripe clarity.

Model information

Reference fit to help you choose a size:

• Model height: 5'9" (175 cm)
• Model is wearing: Size S
• Fit note: The design sits at a high waist and has a roomy, wide-leg cut. For a slimmer silhouette through the hips, consider sizing down; for a more relaxed fit, choose your usual size or size up.

Use the model details as a guide and compare with your own measurements or a similar pant you own.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Wash: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle or hand wash. Turn the pants inside out to protect the stripe print and reduce abrasion.
• Detergent: Use mild detergent and wash with like colors to avoid any color transfer.
• Bleach: Do not use chlorine bleach — it can damage black stripes. Use color-safe bleach only when necessary and tested.
• Dry: Line dry or lay flat to dry to preserve shape and minimize shrinkage. If you must tumble dry, use low heat and remove promptly.
• Iron/Steam: Warm iron on the reverse side or steam to remove wrinkles. Avoid very high heat directly on the stripe print.
• Storage: Store folded or on a wide hanger in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent fading.
• Stain care: Treat stains promptly with a gentle stain remover; test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid vigorous scrubbing which can wear the fabric.
• Professional care: Dry cleaning is optional if the care label allows it — good for structured presses and to maintain shape.

Following these steps will help keep the stripes crisp, the cotton soft, and the silhouette true to size over repeated wears.

Style tips

Black and white striped wide-leg high-waist pants are versatile — emphasize the waist and balance the volume of the legs.

• Casual: Tuck in a fitted white tee or slim tank and add white sneakers or flat sandals. Add a crossbody bag and simple jewelry for an effortless look.
• Office / Smart: Pair with a tailored black or cream blouse, a cropped blazer, and low block heels or loafers. Add a thin belt to accentuate the high waist.
• Evening: Wear with a silky camisole or fitted bodysuit, statement earrings, and strappy heels. A sleek clutch completes the look.
• Summer vacation: Try a breathable linen shirt knotted at the waist, espadrilles, and a straw bag for a chic resort outfit.
• Cooler months: Tuck in a fitted turtleneck or a lightweight sweater; layer with a long coat and ankle boots for proportion and warmth.
• Proportion tips: Because the legs are wide, balance them with a fitted or cropped top. For petites, consider hemming to ankle length and wearing heels; for taller frames, full-length wide legs look especially elegant.
• Color pairings: Neutrals (black, white, beige) are timeless; add a pop of color with red, mustard, cobalt, or emerald for contrast. Metallic accessories (gold or silver) elevate evening looks.
• Pattern mixing: Pair with small-scale prints or subtle textures, but keep at least one element solid to avoid visual clutter. If mixing stripes, keep contrasting stripe sizes and consistent color tones.
