Drawstring Wide Leg Pants

How to measure

To provide accurate product measurements or to choose the right size for your body, follow these two simple sets of steps: measuring the garment itself (used for product listings) and measuring your body (used to pick a size).

Measuring the garment (lay flat)

Tip: record measurements in inches and centimeters (1 in = 2.54 cm). Measure twice for accuracy and note whether measurements are taken with the waistband relaxed or stretched.

Measuring your body (pick your size)

1. Waist: measure around your natural waist or where you plan to wear the waistband (keep tape snug but not tight).
2. Hips: measure around the fullest part of your hips/seat.
3. Inseam: measure from the crotch to the floor while wearing shoes you’ll pair with the pants for accurate length choice.
4. If between sizes, consider the fabric and desired fit: size up for extra ease or if fabric has no stretch; size down if you prefer a closer silhouette.

Materials

Drawstring wide leg pants are made from a range of fabrics. Below are common materials and what to expect from each.

100% Linen

Breathable, lightweight and cool with a natural textured drape. Prone to wrinkles but softens with wear. Best for warm weather. Care: gentle wash or hand wash, line dry.

100% Cotton

Durable, comfortable and breathable with a crisp or soft finish depending on weave. Holds shape well. Care: machine wash cold, tumble low or line dry to reduce shrinkage.

Linen–Cotton Blend

Combines linen’s breathability with cotton’s softness and reduced wrinkling—great all-purpose choice for wide-leg styles.

Tencel / Lyocell

Eco-friendly fiber with a silky hand and excellent drape. Resists wrinkles more than linen and feels smooth against the skin. Care: gentle wash and line dry or low-temp tumble.

Viscose / Rayon

Soft and fluid with great drape. Can be prone to shrinking or losing shape if washed incorrectly—follow label instructions.

Polyester / Synthetic blends

Durable, wrinkle-resistant and holds color well. Often blended to improve durability and reduce maintenance. Care: machine washable and quick-drying.

Elastane / Spandex (1–5%)

Added to blends for stretch and recovery—helps the waistband and fit feel more comfortable.

Always check the garment's care label for the exact fabric composition and follow those instructions first.

Model & fit

Product pages commonly show a model to indicate scale and fit. Example display format:

• Model height: 5'9" (175 cm)
• Model is wearing size: S
• Fit notes: mid-to-high rise, relaxed through the hips and thighs with a wide leg opening

Fit tips: these pants are intended to be relaxed—if you prefer a more tailored look, select one size down if your measurements allow. If you want extra room for layering or a looser silhouette, size up.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

Follow these general care steps to preserve shape, color and fabric life:

• Always read and follow the garment care label first.
• Wash inside out on a gentle cycle with like colors to reduce abrasion and fading.
• Use cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid bleach unless label permits.
• For delicate fabrics (linen, viscose, Tencel): consider hand washing or using a laundry bag on a gentle cycle.
• Air dry flat or hang to dry to prevent shrinkage. If using a dryer, tumble on low and remove promptly to avoid over-drying.
• Iron or steam on the appropriate setting for the fabric: low to medium for synthetics, medium to high for cotton/linen (use steam to tame wrinkles). Turn garment inside out before ironing to protect surface finish.
• Store folded or on a wide hanger to maintain waistband shape. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight to prevent fading.
• Quick fixes: mend small holes early, trim pulls gently, and use a fabric shaver for pilling on blended knits.

Fabric-specific quick guide

• Linen: expect natural creasing—steam to relax wrinkles; avoid high-heat drying.
• Viscose/Rayon: gentle cycle or hand wash, reshape while damp, avoid wringing.
• Polyester blends: low-maintenance—machine wash cold and tumble dry low.
• Elastane-containing blends: wash cold and avoid high-heat drying to maintain stretch.

Style tips

Wide leg pants are versatile. Use these tips to create balanced and flattering outfits.

• Balance volume: pair the wide leg with a fitted or tucked-in top to define the waist (e.g., slim tee, bodysuit, or fitted blouse).
• Create shape: add a belt over the waistband or wear a cropped jacket to emphasize waistline.
• Shoes: sneakers or flat sandals for casual looks; loafers or ankle boots for smart-casual; block heels or platforms to elongate the leg for dressier occasions.
• Office styling: tuck in a sleek blouse and add a blazer; choose neutral tones for a polished look.
• Weekend styling: roll the hem once for a cropped vibe and pair with espadrilles or slip-on sneakers.
• Evening styling: pair with a silky cami, layered jewelry and heeled sandals for an elegant silhouette.
• Layering: lightweight knits or longline coats work well in cooler weather—keep tops fitted to avoid overwhelming your frame.
• Play with proportions: high-waisted wide legs lengthen the silhouette—pair with a tucked top and vampy heel for height.
