These chucks are now my fifth pair, all different designs but the same comfortable style. They are supposed to be cropped, but I am 5ft 3 and they sit at my ankle. If I pull them high waisted, then they are cropped, but I like them low, and the generous elasticated waistband allows for that. The fabric is so soft and they are very easy to wear. This particular design is very quirky and cute. Looks great with a blouse tucked in, or a t shirt. All in all a great pair of trousers in a style that has fast become my favourite! (I'm a size 16-18 and bought a L).
