Not hers, but I did successfully shrink some Marla Wynne pants by washing and drying on hot.

If they're her COMO Jersey pants, I don't know if they will shrink.  Try washing on hot and drying on hot a few times.  I'm sorry it's too late to send them back.😔❤️

@Dawn 06.  I've never had Women with Control pants shrink.  Almost everything except Isaac's  stuff is pre-shrunk these days.

It always depends on the fabric content percentages AND whether or not the fabric has been pre-shrunk.  

 

Cotton is the fabric you can usually count on to shrink.  If it has very much polyester, rayon, nylon or any other of the man-made fibers, forget it.  They won't shrink.

 

Even if you've bought from the line before, it's best to always check the measurements before ordering anything. 

 

Doing that can save you the cost of return shipping, so don't forget that step.

 

Edited to add:

 

If the item is just too big, you might want to consider stopping by to a Tailor or even a good dry cleaners and see about alterations.

 

You liked it enough to spend the money out of it, might as well get some wear from them.
