White company code and roll top trousers

8 replies

bonzo77 · 18/11/2012 19:53

firstly, I'm sure I was sent a code for 20% off + free delivery with my last catalogue, but have lost it. Can anyone help?

Secondly, I am likely to have a csection sometime between now and new year. I understand that their roll top trousers are pretty comfy in this situation and more stylish than pyjamas. Has anyone bought them this season? Is the fabric thin or fairly thick and supportive? Does it fade really badly in the wash? Last time I had a CS I wore these, which were ok but not quite snuggly enough IYKWIM. They would do though if the White Co ones are a bit meh for the price.

If they are a bit thin or prone to fading, anyone got any alternatives? I need wide leg soft black bottoms with a waist band that will put no pressure on my scar. The White Co ones are £35, and I really don't want to spend more than that.

oh, and obviously they need to be black and machine washable for ahem lochia reasons.

I used those trousers post my c-sections and they were great.

Fab. Thank you. Is the sizing generous or average? I'd normally go for a 10 or a small, and am still in this size quite comfortably for stretchy things like leggings at 33 weeks pregnant.

How tall are you? I am a size 10 5'6" and ended up buying a medium for the extra bit of length. I really like them but have washed them and they have gone a tiny bit shorter which is really annoying as they feel too short now. I really should take them back as they have been washed very carefully.

and don't forget to go via Quidco for some extra cash back.

I'm 5ft2 and short of leg, so slight length shrinkage not a problem!

Right. Ordered in S and M. Will return the ones that are not so good.
