Black jersey culottes but not too wide leg

14 replies

Can anyone help please? I'm looking for a pair of black jersey culottes but not with massively wide legs! Does such an item exist? I'm 5'3" with slim legs and huge wide legs look stupid on me.

Any suggestions please?

Do not buy the Baukjen ones, they are really awful!! They have lots of extremely unflattering gathers around the crotch.
These Hobbs ones might be better. I haven't seen them in RL but they look quite neat, and a good discount too. They might not be quite jersey enough for you though, depends how smart you are going.

Thank you, they are a great price! I think a bit smarter than I’m looking for, I want an elasticsted waist rather than fly.

You have got me googling now!
I thought I saw a decent pair in M&S but predictably now impossible to locate on their stupidly rammed website.
These Cos ones also caught my eye but possibly too flappy. www.cosstores.com/en_gbp/women/womenswear/trousers/product.cotton-wide-leg-joggers-black.0936319001.html
I think I saw in Sweaty Betty too but would be £££.

I got some from Arket not long ago! They're a thicker stretchy wool sort of material though, but they're perfect!

I bought these in Next last year and I lived in them. Really comfy and surprisingly flattering.

agree re Next ones-you will need the petite

White Company cropped jersey trousers might also be a good option.

2nd next ones but petite and size down. They got tatty quite quickly but were cheap so I did not mind. I did live in them so that might explain why I got through 2 pairs in one summer.

Have a look on Uniqlo, I've had some grey ones in the past but they may have been more like loungewear.

Are they these ones *@BananaHammock23* ?
