Zenana Scuba Drawstring Pants | DK OLIVE / S 100100623131263

How to measure

Use a flexible measuring tape. For the most accurate results, lay the pants flat on a smooth surface and smooth out any wrinkles before measuring. Record measurements in inches or centimeters (1 in = 2.54 cm).

1. Waist (flat): Measure straight across the top of the waistband from edge to edge. Double that number to get the full waist circumference.
2. Hips (flat): Measure across the fullest part of the seat (about 7–9 inches / 18–23 cm down from the top for most pants), edge to edge, then double for circumference.
3. Inseam: Measure from the crotch seam (where the front and back seams meet) straight down to the bottom of the leg hem.
4. Front rise: Measure from the top of the waistband at the center front down to the crotch seam.
5. Thigh (flat): Measure across the leg 1 inch (2.5 cm) below the crotch seam, edge to edge, then double for full circumference.
6. Leg opening (flat): Measure straight across the hem of one leg, then double for circumference.
7. Outseam: Measure from the top of the waistband at the side down to the bottom hem.

Measuring yourself for size: Stand relaxed, measure the narrowest part of the waist, the fullest part of the hips, and the desired inseam. Keep the tape parallel to the floor and snug but not tight.

Materials & fabric details

Fabric name: Scuba knit. Scuba is a smooth, double-knit fabric with a clean surface and a structured drape. It’s designed to feel soft with a substantial hand, offering a sculpted look with comfortable stretch.

• Typical composition: a polyester/elastane (spandex) blend — polyester gives structure and colorfastness; elastane adds stretch and recovery. (Exact fiber percentages may vary by style; always check the garment tag for precise content.)
• Texture & weight: medium-weight, smooth face, lightly structured — resists wrinkling and keeps a neat silhouette.
• Performance: four-way stretch, good recovery, colorfast, quick-drying, and easy to maintain.
• Common features: adjustable drawstring waistband, elasticized waist, tapered jogger-like leg, often includes side pockets.

Model information & fit

Model shown: 5'9" (175 cm) wearing a size S. Model measurements (example): bust 33" / 84 cm • waist 24" / 61 cm • hips 35" / 89 cm.

Fit notes: Mid‑rise with an adjustable drawstring waist. Relaxed through the hip and thigh with a tapered leg — comfortable for everyday wear. If you prefer a more relaxed look, consider sizing up; for a slimmer, more fitted silhouette, choose your usual size.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors.
• Turn the pants inside out before washing to protect the fabric surface and any hardware (drawstring tips, eyelets).
• Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach or harsh stain removers that can break down elastane.
• Avoid fabric softeners — they can reduce the fabric’s recovery over time.
• Tumble dry low or, preferably, line dry flat to preserve shape and elasticity. Remove promptly from the dryer to reduce wrinkling.
• If needed, reshape while damp and smooth seams with your hands. Use a cool iron or a steamer on the reverse side only; do not iron directly on elastane-rich areas at high heat.
• Store folded in a drawer or on a shelf rather than hanging for long periods (to avoid stretching the waistband).
• Quick fixes: for small snags, gently push the fabric back into place rather than cutting; for pilling, use a fabric shaver carefully on a low setting.

Style tips

• Everyday casual: Pair with a tucked-in tee and white sneakers. Add a lightweight denim jacket for cooler days.
• Elevated casual: Tuck in a silky blouse or fitted mock neck top and add loafers or low block heels to smarten the look.
• Athleisure: Match with a cropped sweatshirt or bomber and chunky trainers for comfortable travel or errands.
• Work-casual: Add a structured blazer and pointed flats or ankle boots for a polished, comfortable office outfit.
• Layering: For a cozy, relaxed vibe, wear an oversized cardigan or longline coat — keep proportions balanced by tucking the front of your top into the waistband.
• Shoe pairing tips: Sneakers and slides for casual days; mules or ankle boots to dress up; heels to lengthen the leg when wearing cropped lengths.
• Accessorize: A slim belt tied over the waistband or a crossbody bag keeps the look modern. Delicate gold jewelry elevates evening looks; sportier caps or beanies suit weekend styles.
• Color & proportion: For a streamlined silhouette, pair dark or monochrome tones top-to-bottom; for contrast, try a bright or patterned top to draw the eye upward.
