The wide leg pants for a Monday that needs to go well

These wide leg pants are made from a lightweight suit fabric, 100% polyester, with a high waist, a zip and button closure and an elastic panel at the back. The listing places them at the office, at a family photo day and on a night out.

The fabric is 100% polyester, described in the listing as a lightweight suit fabric that is soft, breathable and durable enough for daily wearing. The care notes say machine wash, with a laundry bag recommended, or hand wash in cold water. Do not bleach, hang or line dry if you can, and iron at low temperature only if necessary.

The cut is wide leg, with a high waist, a zip and button closure, an elastic back and a side pocket. The listing also mentions tummy control but gives no detail on how it is built in, so fit at the waist is worth checking against your own measurements. Sizes run XS for US 0 to 2, S for US 4 to 6, M for US 8 to 10, L for US 12 to 14, XL for US 16 to 18 and XXL for US 20. No inseam length is listed.

The listing suggests a blouse in spring and fall for a polished, professional feel, or a crop top to keep it casual. Which of those looks right is a matter of taste. It names daily wear, work, meetings, school, vacation, weddings and dates as occasions. Other versions are sold in brown, red brown and blue, and the listing says nothing more about those shades. Origin is listed as imported.
