Super long girls school trousers.

No, I am not the school uniform troll before anyone asks.

What I am though is the owner of a 5 foot 10, 13 year old daughter. Who is currently wearing 34 inch leg school trousers. Said trousers however are too short and look like they have mortally offended her ankles. Her school are also super fussy about uniform. Trousers have to be a formal, tailored style and skinny fit trousers/jeggings/leggings are not allowed. I don't make the rules, I just have to follow them.

So does anyone have any idea where I can get super long trousers from? Next/M and S/supermarket extra tall/long school trousers are all too short. M and S extra tall trousers are 32 inch leg for example.

Long Tall Sally?

some shops do extra long length,but not many!

My DD is the same height and has to wear the school uniform shop ones. Luckily she can just about get away with the length.

I came on to recommend m&s extra long which are now 33 inch, although finding them in stock is as rare as hen's teeth. But I see that would still be too short.

My DD has 33 inch inseam and m&s is the only place I've ever found that do that long, so I don't know about longer.

Maybe try boys/ mens trousers. I have a ds who is just two years older than my DD and their school trousers are remarkably similar. I have to look at the pocket lining to tell them apart when I do the laundry.

What about ladies tailored trousers?

M&S were the longest I found. They used to have a range with an extra hem you could let down, which got you an extra inch or so of length.

Long Tall Sally, ASOS or maybe Next.

DD20 is 6" so I feel your pain.
