Does it really look that bad?

[CVVFan]

I quite liked these trousers but both my DM and DH they didn’t do em any favours but I still liked them! So wanted to know other opinions :)

Just one shoe? That will look odd. Or one black one white?

I like them but I think they’d work better with a black top.

They’re dated and they don’t fit well.

They are the wrong length on you. The model is really tall so they are 3/4 length on her. You could take them up if you really want the pedal pusher effect op…. Or just look for something else, similar that suits your height?

I just saw them and they were cheap. I tend to like ankle or 7/8 length trousers but they’re not super easy to find.

I have short legs and a biggish bum so I get that they’re probably not for me, but oh well!

I also only tend to buy things on sale it’s like a golden rule for me.

oh and I don’t like wide legs either, I feel they just make my legs look even shorter and my bum bigger and shapeless. Not a fan of skinny jeans either.

i like straight trousers

re: price: try Vinted - loads on there!

Because I’m difficult with my fit, I tend to not buy online. So I try to buy in places where I can try them on. Or try them at home and return them.

I think they are nice and make your bum look great.

Mint Velvet do them in petite length online - not sure whether you tried the regular in store?

Yeah it was the regular size. They don’t make them in petite though

Aren’t capri trousers slim fit? They look too wide.

Is this true OP?

Not at all!
I know I’m short but have a decent body for my weight!

and the whole story about these trousers is true!

I think the fit looks good. I’m a big advocate for wear what makes you feel good and happy. If we all wore exactly the same it would be boring and sad. Most of the influencers I see are wearing something that stands out, is very different, but worn with confidence and that’s what seems to give them the audience.

They’re not wrong I’m afraid

Honestly, what a ridiculous model, she has zero shape and looks 7 ft tall. Might as well hang them on a tree.

They are quite jolly trousers, is my main impression. I think the jacket and shoes don’t go. Black or red shoes and top, better.

As this poster said, @ZaZathecat I know some 'much older' people, and they wouldn't be seen dead in those trousers. 😬

This. ^

That's no better than fat shaming.

They do (short, regular and long) albeit all the short sizes are out of stock so academic!

screenshot incoming after review…

No, I disagree very strongly. The model is used to fat shame. The average size in the UK is size 16. The average height is 5 ft 3.

I think you look slim in them but capri style trousers are really dated now. I’m 51 and would never wear capri trousers. I wear wide leg or barrel leg/tapered trousers. I think they are too old for you although you do look nice in them. Depends how bothered you are about wearing fashionable clothes.

From what I can gather from past posts…. There absolutely is some truth to this
