The Zoey Trousers

This is my first Short List purchase and I am delighted.
Fit-I’m just over 5ft1 and the length is perfect with trainers and wedges. Before ordering I read Laura’s advice and customer reviews. I chose the size to best fit my waist, making the trousers slightly loose, but not bulky around my hips. I’ve always been a bit reluctant to buy elasticated waists as I feel they can add bulk at the back - not an issue with Zoey. I love the shape, the way they hang and the feeling of the material (almost like thick silk). It feels like there’s a bit of magic is the design.
Colour-camel is an unusual choice for me but following a clothes audit I identified a need for a lighter pair of trousers. Laura’s guide to colour pairings made me realise how many options I could have with things already in my wardrobe. The colour works really well with white, black, denim, and, much to my delight, looks lovely with a favourite dark navy t-shirt with gold detail.
Cost per wear is my clothing mantra. I except Zoey will be my go-to trousers for this summer and beyond and I predict my target will be achieved. Thank you Laura.

Extremely flattering, gorgeous colour and SO comfortable. They can be dressed up but also perfect for casual, the material is so soft, thick enough (but also keeps you cool) and they can be worn almost all year round.

I bought the Forest green Zoe’s with a pistachio Luna, my first Shortlist purchases and am so pleased with both pieces.
The trousers, fall to the right length for my five foot height and are so comfortable to wear, I don’t wear heels, but these worked perfectly with my work flats and the colour matches with my usual work tops.
Will be definitely be buying more pieces in the future.

This was my first Shortlist purchase. I have a lot of clothes, and so far nothing had been right enough for me to want to spend the money. But I'm always looking for good trousers that I don't have to alter, and I slighted regretted missing out on the previous trousers. The only hesitation I had was that they aren't really a 'winter' colour. However, I got the green, and I think it will look good with most of my tops - grey, black, white, purple, pink (but maybe not the blue ones so much ...). So I'm very pleased with my purchase and there's not much else I can say that hasn't already been said. Perfect fit, perfect length and very comfortable.

I’ve struggled with sizing given I don’t fit into any of the size guides exactly and get quite bloated so the flexibility at the waist has really helped. I have a larger waist (28-29inches) and smaller hips (34-35inches) and got the size 8 forest (which accommodated a very big meal) and the size 6 camel for a more fitted look at the hips, but there was still enough room at the waist.

At 5ft these trousers are good with a heel but can also get away with platform trainers for a more casual look. The material definitely feels premium with thoughtful details. I’ve not found any other petite fitting wide leg trousers that flatter so much. Clearly a labour of love! And you won’t get this level of customer service anywhere else. Laura is super helpful and promptly responsive to any queries.
