Please find me trousers like these so I won't need to buy more trousers ever again!

[TimeForBedWhenever]

Will pay top end of my meagre budget so under £75. Really want them to be flattering but not too tight. Smart AND casual and fling in the machinable. Oh, and if they could turn my flabby 14/16 tummy into something less podgy, so much the better. Thanks you splendid people.

Have you looked at Me&Em?

Try The White Company or Cos.

Remus those are lovely. Thanks. How do their sizes come up - I am a good sized 14 right now 😔

I love that expression - "I'm a good sized 14"....

me too - I'd like to be just a plain ol' 14 really but meh

can't help you with trousers :)

Uniqlo do loads like this.

Sizes vary a lot ime, so you'd need to try on.

I have a pair just like that from gap.

OK- will try to overcome my pathological hatred of shops during the sales and get into one tomorrow 😊. SwedishEdith I am beyond crap at finding these things online so would be more grateful than you can imagine for some specific links........ I am so bad that the ones I find on M&S all attract reviews from 60 year old + shoppers .

Gap. These:

Theyre not as skinny as they look on the model. More like slim.

Like this but loads more. Look under ankle-length trousers.

Agree re the Gap bi-stretch. They are my work trouser of choice, followed by some M& S (so shoot me) fabulous slim bootcut trousers that are thick and have some hidden tummyholderinner thing going on. (I didn't realise that when I got them, but they are wonderful)

Can I slightly jump on this bandwagon and ask for the same kind of thing but for short people with a big stomach? I have literally no trousers any more and I really miss being able to throw on some jeans. Or some nice black trousers for work. What do short dumpy people wear that looks good?

Vintage do you have a link for your M&S ones? I like M&S but always find crap on there 😁

French Connection

I'll go and check my email, can't remember what the chuff they were called!

French Connection have some lovely ones but not a single pair in my size 😣

Thanks Vintage

Following as the m and s ones sound interesting... I need boring and machine washable work trousers too. Such fun...

These trousers are literally everywhere. I defy you NOT to find them. I'm a useless shopper and yet I could go into almost any high street shop right now and buy a pair.

slim bootcut

There you go. I love them. They are really thick fabric.

Me & Em; also lovely but don't want anything too drapey (!) or cuffed. Thanks though.

Ignore that they are called "secret support" (makes me think of girdles and pantyhose lolol)

Boden Richmond trousers?

oh yes, I've got some Boden Richmonds as well. Summer version though.
