Tapered Stirrup Pant
The Stella McCartney Tapered Stirrup Pant is a high-rise black trouser made in Romania from a thick stretch crepe in an acetate and forest-friendly viscose blend, cut with pronounced pleating down the leg, side-seam pockets, belt loops and a zip fly. It is designed as a close-fitting, sculpted trouser that tapers from hip to ankle, where a curved stirrup opening holds the hem in place over the instep and heel. Measurements on the size 36 sample are a 33 cm (13 in) front rise and a 76 cm (30 in) inseam.

Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Tapered Stirrup Pant: Choose this for a modern, sculpted silhouette and absolute comfort that feels like a second skin. This high rise pant features a tapered leg with an elegant stirrup detail and is crafted from a thick stretch crepe made of 51% viscose, 47% acetate, and 2% spandex. While it offers a sleek, minimalist finish with side-seam pockets, its slim fit is designed to hug the body through the thigh.[1,2] | Double-Pleated Striped Dress Pant: Choose this if you want Stella McCartney's pinstripe pleated straight-leg pants: a relaxed, slouchy straight-leg cut in 100 percent wool twill with double front pleats, a mid-rise fit, permanent pleating and pressed creases, and a concealed hook-and-eye and zip fly closure. The full-length 33-inch (84 cm) inseam pools over shoes for a long, tailored drape, and the brand suggests pairing with a coordinating blazer for a head-to-toe runway look. Note that sizes run 38 to 44, and the wool fabric is unlined.[3,4,5,6] | Dense Knit Flared Pant: Choose this if you want a high-waisted, pull-on flared pant in a dense stretch knit made of 83 percent viscose and 17 percent polyester, with the viscose sourced from sustainably managed forests according to the retailer. The fit is close through the hip and thigh with a gradual flare from about the knee to a full-length, 30 inch (76 cm) inseam hem, finished with a flat elastic waistband, no visible fasteners, and a smooth seat without rear pockets, in black. Made in Italy and offered in sizes X-Small through Large, note the 30 inch inseam and pocket-free design if those affect your fit or styling needs.[7,8,9] |
