Shoppers at Next have hailed a pair of wrap-waist trousers as a wardrobe essential, with many begging the retailer to release them in more colours. The Wrap Waist Jersey Denim Wide Leg Trousers, priced at £32, are designed to smooth over the midsection and flatter the stomach without digging in.
Made from a soft, stretchy jersey denim, the wide-leg style features an elegant crossover wrap-waist detail. The trousers, available in dark blue and black, also have an easy pull-on style, so shoppers do not have to deal with zips and buttons.
Multiple sizes selling out online
Several sizes are already out of stock or running low on the Next website, meaning interested buyers may need to act quickly before the item sells out completely.
The trousers have received glowing reviews from shoppers. One wrote: "I absolutely love these trousers. They're exactly what I've been searching for." Another added: "Soft and flowy and gentle on the waist - no muffin top, no harsh, overly tight waistband digging in - why oh why do they make trouser waistbands so bloomin tight? 'Menopot' is a real thing and we want comfort and style. These really hit the spot. More colours please."
Mixed feedback and alternatives
Other reviewers were equally positive, with one saying: "These are so comfortable. A must in any woman's wardrobe." A third commented: "Love love love! So comfy and a great fit." However, one mixed review noted: "These trousers were exactly what I was looking for. They look good and are comfortable. But the regular length was far too long. Also, the denim pair smells of chemicals. They have been washed, but still smell."
Another shopper shared: "Bought jeans as not a fan of the skinny, great fit. Not having a fastener on them is a bonus, as they are extremely comfortable and true to size. I am 5ft 9 in and a 10L is a great fit on me, and they wear well with flats and heels. Colour is great. I have them in several colours."
For those seeking similar options elsewhere, M&S offers a pair of Jersey Straight Leg Trousers at £20, praised by one reviewer as "what I had been looking for for work. They are comfortable and flattering." Boden also has the Greenwich Tie Ponte Trousers, reduced to £39.60 from £99, featuring a drawstring waist and wide-cut legs.
