Pleated High Waist Wide Leg Pants

I loved these pants! Just what I was looking for according to the picture. The picture does not show that there are sequins sparsely placed throughout the fabric. Material is substantial so more a fall/winter garment. I ordered a size 12 and a size 10. I am 5'6", 145lbs, The 12s were huge. The 10's fit comfortably through the waist and hugged my bum before sweeping into the wide leg. The length was good - not too long and not too short. You would need a slight heel to guarantee no drag but could probably get away with flats, too. I think I am just not a pleat person. The pleats spread open on me and I don't like the look. Makes the pants look too small and not flattering. I would have joyfully kept the 10s had they not been pleated - even with the surprise sequins.
