Linen trousers that fit at the waist and not billowing all down the legs?

Does such a thing exist. I'm off to Italy next month on holidays and have an image in my head of nice crisp white t shirts over linen trousers that fit at the waist, not baggy on the arse ( my best bit Grin) and narrow of leg.

Any of you know where I might procure some?? Drwastring always fall down on me!!

Think linen has to be baggy because it has no stretch at and would otherwise sag out of shape really quickly at the knees etc. Have you considered lightweight white or coloured trousers?

Yes, of course! Any suggestions where I could by good smart trousers?? I need low slung as have a very straight figure, no waist to speak of !!

MissBeehivingUnderTheMistletoe · 19/07/2012 12:07

A most recent post on the Doesmybumlook40 blog was about such a pair.

Thanks guys,
MissB - nah... the churidars are kind of exactly what I'm not looking for . I love the cropped linen ones though but it looks like they are sold out Sad
Off to look up Doesmybumlook40 blog...
