FAQs

What material are these trousers made from?

These trousers are crafted from wool, providing a flowing woven fabric with an elegant drape.

Are these trousers suitable for casual wear?

These trousers are primarily designed for formal events and sophisticated occasions due to their elegant wide-leg silhouette and distinctive detailing. While adaptable, they are not typically intended for casual everyday wear.

Yes, they feature stylish side pockets for practical functionality.

What is the inside leg length of these trousers?

The trousers have a versatile 75cm inside leg length, suitable for various heights.

What kind of tops pair well with these trousers?

Can I wear these for a wedding or race day event?

Absolutely! Their contemporary wide-leg silhouette, contrast stripe detailing, and elegant design make them a perfect choice for weddings, race days, and other formal events where you want to make a sophisticated statement.

Troubleshooting

Trousers appear wrinkled after wearing or storage.

Gently steam the trousers or iron on a low heat setting with a damp cloth over the fabric. Avoid direct high heat.

The trousers feel too long or drag on the floor.

The 75cm inside leg length is standard; consider having them professionally hemmed to your desired length. The simple design makes this an easy alteration.

Stains appear on the wool fabric.

Address stains immediately. Gently blot (do not rub) with a clean, damp cloth. For stubborn stains, consult a professional dry cleaner, informing them of the material and the nature of the stain.

Fabric appears to lose its original drape or shape.

This could be due to incorrect washing or storage. Ensure you are following the recommended dry cleaning or gentle hand-washing instructions and storing them on a padded hanger. A professional dry clean can often restore the fabric's drape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Sizing and Fit

These trousers come in a UK women's dress size 8 with a versatile 75cm inside leg length. The high-waist design is intended to flatter your natural curves. Always refer to your body measurements and any available size guides to ensure the best fit. If the length is not ideal, the simple hemline allows for professional alteration.

Material Compatibility

Made from wool, these trousers require specific care to maintain their integrity and appearance. Wool is known for its durability and excellent drape but can be sensitive to harsh washing methods.

Care Instructions

To ensure the longevity and pristine condition of your Wallis Contrast Stripe Split Trousers, follow these care guidelines:

  • Cleaning: Due to the wool material, dry cleaning is generally recommended for best results to preserve the fabric's quality and shape. If hand-washing, use cold water with a wool-specific detergent, gently squeezing (do not wring) to remove excess water.
  • Drying: Lay flat to dry on a clean, dry surface, away from direct sunlight or heat. Avoid tumble drying as this can cause shrinkage and damage to wool.
  • Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting with a damp cloth placed between the iron and the fabric to prevent scorching or shining. Use steam sparingly.
  • Storage: Store on a padded hanger to maintain the trousers' shape and prevent creasing. Ensure they are clean before storing for extended periods to avoid attracting pests.
