1970s | Stone High Waist Wide Leg Trousers - w24

Description:

Item: High waist wide leg trousers in stone. Flat front with a waistband, single button fastening with contrast olive green fabric tab detail, and wide straight leg. Clean, unfaded even colour throughout.

Era: 1970s

Brand: —

Condition: Very good vintage condition, with light wear consistent with age and use.

Provenance Note: The high waist wide leg trouser in a neutral stone is one of the most versatile shapes the 1970s produced, and this example has a quiet elegance to it. The contrast olive green fabric tab at the waistband is a small but considered detail that gives it something over a plain waistband, the two earthy tones sitting naturally together. A clean, unfussy trouser that works across a wide range of styling and has aged without looking dated.

Condition Notes:

Please be aware. All our true vintage items come with a history, and minor signs of age, wear, or character should be expected. Any notable marks, damage, or repairs will always be clearly mentioned. This natural wear is part of what gives genuine vintage its individuality and authenticity. True vintage should not be confused with modern second-hand clothing

We photograph all garments using a professional, studio-grade imaging system designed to show colour, texture, and shape as accurately as possible. This setup was built specifically to give a true representation of each piece and avoid misleading presentation; however, we do not take photos of inside the garment. While we take great care in inspecting every piece, with true vintage it is always possible that a minor detail may be missed.

Sizing Notes:

Please compare these measurements to a similar item you already own, laid flat (rather than measuring your body). Start with the bust measurement, then check length. Vintage sizing runs small and cuts vary significantly from modern equivalents, so the measurements listed are the best guide to fit.

Our modern sizing estimates are based on bust measurements using the following sizing scale:

UK 6 (30–31")

UK 8 (32–33")

UK 10 (34–35")

UK 12 (36–37")

UK 14 (38–39")

UK 16 (40–41")

UK 18 (42–43")

UK 20 (44–45")

For jackets, knitwear, and padded outerwear, we grade one size down to allow for structure, lining, and bulk.

Buying true vintage clothing:

When buying true vintage clothing, you are buying a piece of clothing as an investment. We believe most of our true vintage items will hold or increase in value in years to come. We hope you will cherish your purchase.
