Gorgeous color, good high rise

I am tall with a very long torso and shortish legs and it’s rare that I find pants that fit. (All too often my only option is to buy tall pants and have them hemmed.) These are great. I will say I have the regular size version in an 18 and the waist on the 16W version is tighter than those. But they look nice and fit.

So Comfortable!

My new favorite pants for work! The material is very lightweight and comfortable and I love that there are belt loops to style the pants multiple ways. I love the subtle crochet details on the pockets. Length is perfect- I am 5'6". Waist has elastic and is super stretchy in the best way!

perfect pant for all year

Sure the fabric and style is for summer but it can be worn all year in many climates. Love the fit, a true 16W and leg length is full not cropped which is even better for those with longer legs like me.

Dress up or down

These are great pants to dress up or down. I'm 5"2 and I think I had them hemmed but I can't remember for sure. They have a little bit of stretch but not too much. I love the navy color!

The inside button fell off after one wash and wear - I expected more from an $88 pair of pants.
