FAQs
What does 'Petite' mean for these trousers?
The 'Petite' designation indicates these trousers are specifically designed for individuals of shorter stature, with proportions tailored to fit petite frames, including an approximate 99cm inside leg length.
Are these trousers suitable for all seasons?
While comfortable year-round, their blend and full length make them particularly well-suited for autumn and winter wear, especially when layered with knits and boots as suggested.
How do I ensure the best fit?
The trousers are described as 'True to size' within the Roman Petite range. It's recommended to consult the brand's specific size guide for UK women's dress sizes to match your measurements, especially if unsure.
Can I iron these trousers?
Yes, you can iron these trousers. Use a low heat setting. For added protection, you can place a thin cloth between the iron and the fabric.
What is 'Ponte' fabric?
Ponte (or Ponte di Roma) is a double-knit fabric, meaning it has a slight rib knit that creates a thicker, more stable fabric. It's known for its excellent stretch, resilience, and resistance to creasing, offering a smooth, structured drape.
Do these trousers have functional pockets?
Yes, these trousers feature functional angled side pockets, providing practical storage for small essentials.
What type of footwear pairs best with these trousers?
The wide-leg style pairs well with various footwear. For autumn/winter, ankle boots are an excellent choice. Depending on the occasion, flats or block heels can also complement the silhouette.
Troubleshooting
Trousers feel too long or too short.
These are designed for petite frames with an approximate 99cm inside leg. If the fit is not ideal, compare your measurements with Roman Petite's size guide. Hemming by a professional tailor is an option if slightly long.
Fabric feels stiff or loses softness after washing.
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and washing in cold or lukewarm water. Avoid using too much detergent. Air drying or tumble drying on a very low heat can help maintain fabric softness. Avoid over-drying.
Trousers wrinkle easily.
The polyester blend should resist excessive wrinkling, but for best results, remove from the wash promptly. Hang immediately to air dry or, if tumble drying, remove while slightly damp and hang. Light steaming can also help smooth out wrinkles.
Pockets gape open.
This might indicate the trousers are slightly too snug around the hips or waist. Check the fit; if they are true to size, ensure pockets are not overfilled. A tailor might be able to adjust the pocket opening if it's a persistent issue.

Care Instructions
To ensure your trousers remain in excellent condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Machine Washable: Wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours. Use cold or lukewarm water to prevent shrinkage or damage to the fabric.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can degrade the fabric and colour.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting, or preferably, air dry by laying flat or hanging to prevent creasing and maintain shape. Avoid high heat.
- Ironing: If needed, iron on a low-heat setting. Placing a thin cloth between the iron and the trousers can offer extra protection.
- Storage: Store on a hanger or neatly folded to prevent wrinkles.
