New pant length ?

PattiJ — Sun, 02 Feb 2014 08:55:09 GMT

Is there a new fashion trend to short length. Pants? I was so happy to see Susan brought back her Milano knit pants. They are my favorite, I was just about to order when I noticed the length listed as 29" for regular length. These pants were always in the 30" to 31" range. Why are these listed so short? The video looks like the length is fine. Do you think it is a typo? I really would love a new pair but do not need to return another item.

Cost savings ... less fabric.

Spring is coming and women like showing off their pedicures and sandals and heels.

I still wonder what happened to the ""old standard"" that pants should just cover your large ankle bone............

I don't know what sort of style (bootcut, slim leg, etc.) the new pants are - but generally pants with a narrower leg are a bit shorter.

I am in total agreement. I cannot wear a 29"" pant..why can't Susan offer talls...31 to 32"" pants? I love the printed pant she is showing today..but tooooo short!!!

Strange, I als o had an adverse reaction to the pant lengths, but for the opposite reason. Susan's pants have always been the only ones on QVC that fit me, because they were a 27 to 27 1/2 inch inseam. These pants were offered in a 16 inch length - too short for me, while the other length went under my shoes.

I hope that this is not going to be the norm. I need that 27ish length - not 26.

Most of Susan's pants are too short! I notice all the tall models look like they are ready for Noah's Ark!

I'm tall and sorry, I don't consider 31/32" inseams as tall at all. Talls, to me should be at least at a 34" inseam.

I am 5'7"" and like the shorter length on slim leg pants. They look so cute with flats or heels with ankles showing. A very fun look!
