Hush harem knit trousers - am 5ft2 - yes or no?

Coveting, they are v cheap in the sale... does anyone have these? Would they be a disaster on someone who is only 5ft 2 (reviews make them sound v long)? Am a size 8(ish) and my legs aren't particularly short (i.e. am usually a regular length, petite is always too short), but then they are not going to be the same length as someone who is 5ft8 Grin.

are they anything like the H and M trousers on the thread, super slimming trousers?

I have the jersey type hareems in black and am the same height as you but a size 12, they are lovely. They would be lovely on you don't worry about the height thing!

Did you order them? How was the fit on you asn

I've got them, I'm about 5ft 3 I think. They fit well length wise but the M/L are massive, I'm a size 14 and they're huge on me. But so warm and comfy I'm keeping them anyway just to wear around the house. I've got them on right now over the top of another pair!

Great thanks!

Mine have just arrived, in the charcoal. I'm a size 12, 5'6" and got the s/m.

A tiny bit too short for me if I'm being fussy.

They are comfy and good for lounging round on chilly days. I actually find the fabric a tiny bit itchy, which is odd as they're only 10% wool, and cashmere at that. But I'm a sensitive soul Wink.

Mine just arrived this morning, love them. Very snug and cosy. XS is a perfect fit. Going to pop them on this afternoon and snuggle down with children and a film.

I ordered a s/m as I'm normally a 10 but want them to wear after having baby instead of jeans. I tend to be sensitive to wool but not as much to cashmere so hope they won't be itchy

Also got the Lola joggers in
Navy, does anyone have those?
