Marilyn Straight Leg Corduroy Pants

They're not corduroy, they're velveteen. There are no wale or cord, just all over velvety texture, which is pretty, but not what I had expected. As always, had to buy a 6 and my regular size is 8, and if I keep them will need to hem a couple inches. I'm 5'4+".

I LOVE these pants. They're soft and stretch just right. Not too long. I'm 5' 9 and can wear these with a low heel or flat. I highly recommend these for your wardrobe.

i love the cut and fit on these, my second pair of NYDJ pants. Although these are a different cut, they are equally well-tailored off the rack. I'm between a size 8 or 10, depending on cut. I got an 8 in these, and they're just right. They fit well, not too tight, but just right. They do have a little bit of give, so they're very comfortable. I LOVE the color and the fabric. Might be my favorite winter pant at this point.

I've returned these pants for 2 reasons. First: They are much more like a velvet/velore mix thab corduroy. Secind: way too short.

Baggy around the lower hip/upper thighs and the leg opening is more like a modified boot cut - not straight. I guess I prefer a slimmer straight leg. Not flattering on my frame.

They are courderoy-like material but without wales. Color is great. Definitely order a size smaller than your regular.
