I want some plain black trousers, that will be office smart. Slim leg, preferably.

Won't attract lots of fluff Hmm or gather at the waist in an odd way Hmm

Are they out there?

I have also been searching for this elusive item since last year.

Have tried on in DPs, New Look, Wallis, Oasis and George. Found nothing yet.

Banana Republic is great for trousers. One of the only places that do a petite leg.
They are only online now and quite pricey but if you wait for the sale they are reasonable. They wash well and keep their shape too.

Hobbs Amanda trousers - not the cheapest but they wash really well and look smart.

Seconding Hobbs! They make my arse look AMAZING, but are also super profesh.

The Amandas look fab, are they true to size and do the knees do funny things due to lycra overdose? (sorry for hijack OP!)
I have Gap bi-stretch and Boden Richmonds- both good enough but I want fabulous! The Gap do a weird gather-round-the-knee thing and after a day sitting at a desk the ankle rides up to join the party.

Thank you VERY much!

I'll have a look at these and keep my fingers crossed that either of these are the holy grail and will improve the appearance of my arse

I've got some from Sainsbury's. They're really comfy and still look new after 6 months
