Design Details and Benefits
- Crochet panel is the only structured part of the waistband - the rest of the trouser is soft, unstructured fabric that drapes rather than holds a shape
- Drawstring threads directly through the crochet lattice - ties the two waistband elements together as one considered detail instead of two separate finishes
- Wide leg starts directly below the crochet panel - no fitted hip section before the flare begins, so there's nothing pulling tight on you
The crochet waistband is what carries the whole design - a plain drawstring waist on the same wide-leg trouser would read as far more basic. Worth knowing before you order: the crochet panel sits open by design, so it's not fully opaque at the waist.
