Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before you buy

Wide leg pants often look different in person — how do I size the Lightweight Tailored Wide Pants With Pleated Front For Women - Work & Ca correctly? +

Size to your hip measurement — the waist is less critical because the silhouette is relaxed by design. The length matters more than you'd think: wide leg pants need the hem to reach at or just above the floor to look intentional rather than cut-off. At a standard inseam length these work well for women 5'5" and above with flat shoes; shorter frames typically need either a heel or a simple hem taken up 4–5cm. If you're ordering to wear flat, factor in the hem when choosing.

The Lightweight Tailored Wide Pants With Pleated Front For Women - Work & Ca are non-stretch cotton — how do they feel after a long day of wear? +

Non-stretch cotton has a structured, slightly board-like feel when new that softens significantly after 2–3 wears and washes. By the end of the first week the fibers relax and the fabric drapes against the body rather than holding its shape away from it. What non-stretch cotton does well that stretch blends can't match: it holds the cut of the pant through a full day without sagging at the knee or seat.

Do the Lightweight Tailored Wide Pants With Pleated Front For Women - Work & Ca work for petite frames or do they need altering? +

At a true petite height (under 5'2") these will likely need a 3–5cm hem taken up — the standard inseam is cut for an average height of around 5'5". Other than length, the proportions work well: the waist and hip measurements scale correctly to petite frames, and the cut doesn't change in a way that looks proportionally wrong. The rise and pocket placement are the more critical details for petite fits: a high rise elongates the leg; a pocket that sits too low (below mid-thigh) can visually shorten an already short.

Will the Lightweight Tailored Wide Pants With Pleated Front For Women - Work & Ca shrink in the wash, and how do I prevent it? +

Cold wash on a gentle cycle and line dry: shrinkage is 0–1% and undetectable in practice. The risk is machine drying on high heat — non-stretch cotton can lose up to a full size in the waist after five cycles of hot-wash-plus-high-heat drying. A single warm wash won't cause noticeable shrinkage and can actually help break in the fabric faster if the stiffness of new cotton bothers you. Turn them inside-out before washing to protect the outer surface and prevent uneven fading in darker colours.

Do the Lightweight Tailored Wide Pants With Pleated Front For Women - Work & Ca work for petite frames or do wide legs overwhelm a shorter height? +

Wide leg works for petite frames when the length is right — the hem needs to reach the top of the foot for the silhouette to elongate rather than cut the leg. At 5'2" with flat shoes this typically means hemming 4–6cm off the bottom. With a 5–7cm heel the same pants work without alteration. The other essential: a fitted or cropped top tucked in. Wearing a long or oversized top with wide leg pants shortens the torso and makes a petite frame look boxier.

Are the Lightweight Tailored Wide Pants With Pleated Front For Women - Work & Ca long enough for taller frames — do they hit the right length at 5'8"+? +

At 5'8" the standard inseam on most styles hits just at or slightly above the ankle, which reads as a deliberate cropped length rather than too-short. At 5'10"+ there's usually a 3–5cm gap between the hem and the floor, which looks intentional in wide-leg or jogger styles but can look abruptly short in straight-leg or formal styles. The practical answer: check the listed inseam length against your body measurement (floor to hip) minus the rise, and if the result is under your inseam length, the pants will work.
