Very long trousers for a plus size figure - Anyone have any ideas

I have always struggled with trousers, but, i am also plus size.

Does anyone know where I can get black trousers that are longer than a 33" leg, but also available for larger sizes.

Thanks

Either Long Tall Sally if thats still going, or Evans and take them down a bit. I recently bought a pair of long jeans from there and had to take them up. I have a dodgy inside leg measurement as well.

You could also try ebay.com as many US companies deal with this problem.

Long Tall Sally only go up to size 22.

Evans do a Tall range, which is longer than their usual long length.

Tall and All go to size 24

If size 22 is big enough, tallgirls looks worth a peek

Radley, I struggle with this too, need a size 26 waist, and need longer than 33" inside leg. At the moment all that will fit me is the 33" Evans range. It is just long enough - well, not really but will have to do

Good luck with this search, will check in periodically to see if anyone has any suggestions.

(alternatively, we could compile a list of all of us who need a plus size and long leg trousers, and we could petition Evans....)

definately, the jeans at evans always seem to be long enough though, just not the trousers.

Yours go up to about a 28 and their trousers are HUGELY long for me.

Radley · 01/04/2007 14:47

According to their website the trousers are all 30 and 31 inch leg - this is not true. I don't have a 25 inch inner leg, yet their trousers are consistantly 5 - 7 inches too long/

You need to try some on.

Dorothy perkins goes up to a 20/22 in their tall range, which I've always found to be really generously sized as well as fabulously long. Simply be seem to be doing a longer length in a few of their trousers too, although I haven't tried these yet. (I'm 6ft with a 35 inch inner leg) Also evans tall range, although I hate their sizing anyway, so tend to avoid them!
