………………………..Many of you have inquired about this new BOOT CUT PONTE PANT, A268216, and since it is already posted on the Linea QVC site I felt I should give you all the info I can. First, this pant was supposed to be held for the Oct. show when I will be showing the coordinating blazer, but these days I never know why or when “they” decide to post items……The Boot Cut Pant……..is similar to the SLIM PANT, A265615 that many of you have fallen in love with….in that the top is the same. It has the same CONTOUR WAIST BAND…..it has the same SLANTED DARTS that look like pockets, but aren’t, and it has the same general fit from the waist through the thigh, but that’s where this becomes a different pant. This is a MODIFIED BOOT CUT. Some would call this a true boot cut pant, but a “true” boot cut has a bigger leg opening at the bottom….or a bigger flare IMO. The leg opening is approx 8 inches……so it isn’t too wide. The inseam of this pant is 32 inches.I would have preferred it even longer, but then I was getting into the “tall” category….heaven forbid!! LOL….Petites you will have to shorten…..sorry…..but if there were ever a pant that was worth the money to shorten….this is it! and you can get the length just right for you. I would even have them make the back of the pant slightly longer than the front….to where the heel joins the shoe or a little below is even better……about half way down the heel. Why 32 inches for the regular length [which is long for QVC]? because there is nothing worse, IMHO, than a boot cut pant that is too short. It should hit or just break the top of the shoe, sneaker, flat, bootie, boot etc etc. If it is a little shorter that’s fine too. On Jac, 5’10” 1/4, it is shorter but she likes it with her black sneakers and black socks. I am seeing boot cut pants on the runways right now that are very short…..even ankle length…..They are supposed to be cool and hip, and what’s happening, but I think it’s another case of “The Emperor’s New Clothes”. If you’re a “hot designer” you can show anything and the editors rave! Have you ever seen how many of the editors dress???!!!!….Case closed……..Here is the conundrum!…….The boot cut is NUMERICAL, and the slim pant is SML!!!???What ever size you bought the Slim Pant, A265615, is the size I would have recommended you buy this pant in! but now you will have to go by measurements. If you have the slim pant or any pant you like the fit of….take those measurements and compare them to the measurements of the boot cut and you should have a good idea what size to get….. I call this SUPER PONTE, because it is in the same category or type of fabric as the Super Ponte I sold before…..you remember the elongated jacket and pant. The Super Pontes are a blend of RAYON/NYLON/ SPANDEX whereas my regular Linea Ponte, like my TSV jacket from a few years ago, the hooded blazer and the pants and skirts I’ve done in the past are Polyester blends. This new Super Ponte is not quite as heavy as the last one, but the hand is very similar. I know for sure if you loved the slim pant you will love this one just as much or more. This pant is being offered in two colors……….BLACK….and……CHARCOAL HEATHER GREY. Two must have colors……This is the only pant I will have this season until next year! Get it early so you can check the fit and restock. I know many of you will want duplicates………………………………………………….enjoy………………………….much Love…………………………….Louis
