Are these trousers too short?

[sillybilly44]

I'm 5ft 9 so I struggle to find any that don't look like ankle grazers
I found these which I like ,mainly for travelling or just a night on holiday when I want to stick a pair of trousers on
I know the trend at the min is for really long trousers so unsure if these are just "too short"
Can I get away with these ?

I like them!

Any longer, you’d be falling over them.

They look absolutely fine but for me, they would be just slightly too short - I have very long legs and am very picky about the length of my trousers though.

@Dreamingofgoldfinchlane not sure if it's a curse or a blessing to have long legs sometimes

You look stunning so definitely a blessing for you! Agony when trying to find suitable clothes though.

I'd say borderline, could they be let down a bit? I'm also 5'9" and have the same problem, I often get trousers let down.

They look good to me, you look great overall ! Long legs are a blessing, DD and I scrape 5ft 6 and would love to be taller.

They are ok now but they might shrink, so I probably would pass.

This!

Honestly think that's not look good any longer than that!

Depends on which shoes you’d be wearing with them surely? Flat, high heels etc….

Start shopping in M&S - everything is hugely long now.

Look lovely! ( I'm sooooooo short!)

They look good now but I'd be concerned they might shrink slightly with washing. I'm really annoyed my m and s wide leg trousers did that.

They look fine to me 🤷‍♀️

I have the opposite problem at 5'4 with 'short legs, long body' shape. ALL trousers are way too long for me! 'Regular' length trousers are too long, and I am not quite 'short enough' for the petite range - it's frustrating isn't it?

So many more options open to men, where their trousers are sized by inside leg measurement! Why they can't also do this for women is beyond me!

They look perfect in length to me. I think any longer would be too long.

I wouldn't look at you and say her trousers are too short but I think there is something not quite right about the way they are falling over your feet.

They look fine to me.

I find all trousers ridiculously long these days....even if I didn't live in flat shoes I feel you have to be at least 6ft tall or be willing to wear stilts!

Too short? How are they too short? They're actually a bit long!
