I am looking for trousers to go with my new linen jacket. I was thinking brown and ordered these in size 18 from the Boden sale. Now, I have a relatively small waist (about 33 1/2 inches) and a big bum (about 44 inches), so I thought they might suit, as someone said Boden tended to suit pear shapes. However, they are really gaping a lot at the waist.
They look just about okay if I pull them in with a belt. I think the next size down might be too small on the hip. I am wondering whether to return them or whether to take them and resign myself to having a shape that's a bit different from average.
Has anyone got any tips re trousers on sale at the moment that are good for pear shapes?
