Striped Wide Leg Pants | Deep Purple / S 100100261171144

How to measure

Use a soft measuring tape. For the most reliable fit, measure a pair of pants that already fits you well (garment measurement) and compare to the product measurements, or measure your body and consult the size chart. Garment measurements are usually taken with the item laid flat.

Measuring the garment (laid flat — recommended)

1. Lay flat: Fasten the button/zip and smooth the fabric flat on a level surface without stretching.
2. Waist: Measure across the top of the waistband from seam to seam. Double that number for the waist circumference. For elastic waists, measure both unstretched and fully stretched.
3. Hips: Measure across the widest part of the hips/seat (usually about 18–22 cm / 7–9 in below the crotch seam). Double the flat measurement.
4. Front rise: Measure from the crotch seam (center front) up to the top of the front waistband.
5. Back rise: Measure from the crotch seam (center back) up to the top of the back waistband.
6. Inseam: Measure from the crotch seam down the inside leg to the hem.
7. Outseam / Total length: Measure from the top of the waistband down the side seam to the hem.
8. Thigh: Measure 2.5–5 cm (1–2 in) below the crotch seam across the leg, then double that number.
9. Leg opening / Hem: Measure the width of the hem (flat) and double it for the circumference.

Measuring your body

1. Waist: Measure at the narrowest part of your torso (natural waist) or at the position you wear pants (high/low rise).
2. Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips/seat, keeping the tape horizontal.
3. Inseam: Measure from the crotch to the floor (or desired hem) while standing straight in shoes you'll wear with the pants.
4. Rise preference: If you prefer high, mid, or low rise, compare your body measurements to the garment's front rise measurement to ensure the intended fit.

Tip: For a roomy wide-leg silhouette allow 2–6 cm (1–2.5 in) of extra ease at the hips compared to your body measurement depending on how relaxed you want the fit.

Materials & fabric information

Striped wide-leg pants are produced in several common fabrics; below are typical compositions and what to expect from each. Always check the product label for exact composition.

• Cotton (or cotton-linen blends) — Breathable, crisp to semi-structured drape, comfortable for warm weather. Care: machine wash cold on gentle, air dry or tumble dry low; may shrink slightly if dried hot.
• Linen — Lightweight, very breathable, natural texture and creasing. Care: hand wash or gentle machine wash, avoid high heat tumble drying, press while slightly damp; will soften over time.
• Viscose / Rayon — Fluid, soft drape that enhances the wide-leg flow. Care: delicate wash or hand wash, reshape while damp and air dry; may bleed or shrink if washed hot.
• Lyocell / Tencel — Smooth, eco-friendlier rayon alternative with good drape and strength. Care: gentle wash, air dry, low‑temperature ironing.
• Polyester / blends — Durable, retains shape and color well, less prone to wrinkling. Care: machine washable, low heat drying recommended.
• Elastane / Spandex (1–3%) — Added for stretch and recovery around waist or hips; helps comfort but isn’t usually visible in the fabric appearance.
• Stripe construction: Yarn-dyed stripes hold color longer and look crisper; printed stripes may fade faster—follow color-safe wash recommendations for vibrant stripes.

Model information

The model photographed with these pants is 177 cm (5'10") tall and is wearing a size S (example reference). Model measurements: bust 83 cm / waist 62 cm / hips 89 cm. The photographed fit is high/regular rise with a relaxed fit through the hips and a full wide leg.

Fit note: These pants are designed to be roomy through the leg. If you prefer a slimmer look, consider sizing down; if you want extra ease or will layer under the waist, size up.

Care guide — to keep it lovely longer

• Always follow the garment's care label first.
• Wash inside out with similar colors to protect stripes and prevent color transfer.
• Use a mild detergent and cold or lukewarm water; select a gentle cycle or hand wash for delicate fabrics.
• Avoid bleach and optical brighteners on colored stripes.
• Do not overload the machine — allow room for the fabric to move to reduce friction.
• Air dry flat or hang to dry; avoid high-heat tumble drying (especially for linen, viscose and elastic blends).
• Iron on the reverse side at the recommended temperature for the fabric; use steam for stubborn creases. For linen, press while slightly damp.
• Spot treat stains promptly according to fabric type; for persistent or structured pieces, consider professional dry cleaning.
• Store folded or hung by the waistband to preserve shape; keep out of direct sunlight to avoid fading.

Style tips

• Balance the volume: pair wide-leg pants with a fitted or tucked-in top to emphasize your waist.
• Casual look: tuck a tee or knit top and add white sneakers or flat sandals.
• Office ready: wear with a slim blouse or lightweight turtleneck and a structured blazer; finish with loafers or low heels.
• Evening: choose a silk cami or fitted bodysuit and heeled sandals for an elongated silhouette.
• Layering: cropped jackets or belted coats work well—avoid bulky tops that add width above the waist.
• Shoes: heels and platforms lengthen the leg; sneakers and mules keep the outfit relaxed and modern.
• Accessories: a slim belt creates definition; keep jewelry minimal to let the stripes and silhouette stand out.
• Mixing prints: keep scale in mind—pair bold stripes with small-scale prints or solid pieces for a balanced look.
