• Elasticated high waist with a gathered, paperbag-style finish - sits firmly at the natural waist while giving a relaxed, lived-in look at the top of the jean
• Extra-wide leg cut in denim that sweeps all the way to the floor, creating a long, unbroken line that works particularly well on petite frames
• 100% cotton denim that starts structured and gradually softens and moulds to your shape with every wear, staying breathable and comfortable throughout the day
• Petite-specific proportions mean the rise, leg length and overall silhouette are scaled to sit and hang exactly as intended - no rolling or bunching at the ankle
• Front side pockets sit neatly into the gathered waistband, keeping the wide-leg shape clean from hip to hem

The gathered waistband is what sets these apart from a standard wide-leg jean - it creates a soft ruching effect at the high waist that contrasts neatly with the broad, sweeping leg below. The denim has enough weight to hold its shape as it falls, so the leg hangs wide and flat rather than billowing. Style them exactly as the model does here: a fitted cropped tee tucked just above the waistband keeps the proportions sharp and lets the volume of the leg do the talking. Finish with strappy heeled sandals or chunky trainers depending on how dressed-up you want to go. These work just as well thrown on for a weekend with friends as they do for a casual evening out - the high waist and floor-length leg give them enough presence to feel considered without any extra effort.
