Customer Reviews XCVI Swooping Pant

I ordered this pant after ordering the willowy wide leg pant and loving them. This pair is tighter, even though the size is the same. The length is 32-1/2 from inseam to hem; however, and so I will be returning it. Not sure if it was a flaw or if they are just running long. I had expected the hips to be the same as the others and was surprised that they were tighter.

I was unsure about the fold-over waist, but it is seriously cute. I like the flare of the pant and the general look. I've got an athletic curvy build (5'4", 150), so finding pants is a challenge for me. Unfortunately, the pants are a WEE bit too tight across the front. Instead of being flat in the front, I have those too tight whiskers across my thighs/crotch. These are going back. :(

I love these pants but here's the thing, they are too big! Got them in a medium as I had ordered the side tier palazzo in medium which I love. I think it's the fabric, they start off fine when I put them on but tend to stretch as the day goes on. Otherwise, great color and texture. I would recommend them but just know that the fabric does tend to get baggie.

Absolutely love other pants from this brand. wanted to love these so much - especially for a sale price. Alas, they just cling too much to my "problem areas" before "swooping."

Great, comfortable pair of pants- I love the cut of the leg; very flattering for my build.The foldable waistband is a bit thick, though, so if you are not on the very slim side (I am not), you may need to really play with the proper adjustment for fit and comfort. But on the plus side, the waistband makes the length adjustable. For reference I am 5'3" and wear a size 6, and generally a medium for SML sizing. The mediums fit me well.

These pants do not look like the photo. Yes they are comfortable...but if you are under 5'5, these are ridiculous. The high reviews must be from tall people because the bell bottom is about 2 feet wide. They would only "work" if you are very tall, and in all honesty, also very narrow. Comfort is one thing; a fashion disaster is another. They were ridiculous on me. I'm 5'3 and in shape.

I wanted to like these, but the style of the side panel makes them stick out slightly at the hips, rather than drape smoothly. I think these pants would work better on a more pair-shaped body. I love the color, and I love wide-leg pants! So I opted for the Foldover Palazzo instead.

The jury is still out on these pants...mainly because the fabric is extremely thin (revealing). It's a bit more evident in this color than the black. This style fits more snugly than some of XCVI's other styles. All in all, these elements are more of a potential problem for those of use who are "rounder" in form.

After all the rave reviews, I was slightly disappointed to see what type of fabric 80 dollars buy. The fabric is extremely thin - so just beware of that. The fit is comfortable and the pants do stretch out with ware, I think that's why some size down; I'm comfortable in my original size. I'm 5'8, but I must have longer legs than torso as these pants are short on me. If I move the waste band down, than that lowers the crotch; so I'm also unhappy with that. I don't think I'll buy another pair of these as the price to quality ratio scares me off.

This pair of pants was one of three styles ordered. Opening the package revealed a large rust stain on the hip which looked very bizarre. Clearly this is damaged goods!
