Cropped, slim trousers for tall pear...

Am looking for a pair of work trousers in black, dark grey or dark navy, slim fit and cropped to the ankle.

My problem is I'm 5ft11 and pear-shaped (12 top/14 bottom) and I always find slim fit tight on my thighs - can anyone recommend a brand/shop where the cut is slim but generous in the thigh?

Gap bi stretch are a disaster for me (I'm a pear) - they show every single lump even when I go up a size. Gap slim cropped pants on the other hand I love. I'm 5'5 and wear the tall ones as full length trousers.

I'm 5'10" and a pear shape and found great cropped trousers in mantaray at Debenhams. They're cropped to mid shin though and not sure if they have the same style this season... but I feel your pain re buying trousers!
