Hi - does anyone here buy Chanel trousers? I'm wondering on their sizing. If you were a size 8 UK would you go for a 36 in general or is it totally variable based on style? Do people get trousers altered in the same way as jackets?
Also how is the length on them - as a petite 5 ft 1 this is a perennial problem for me in any case I guess !
I'll check out next time I am at Chanel but was intrigues to hear thoughts from more experienced Chanel girls!

Hi! The Chanel trousers can be challenging. I have a few pairs. I generally try Chanel trousers on and wince because they are a clear no-go. Definitely not something you want to order without trying. I’m 5’6” with long legs and I needed to shorten both of my pairs a good amount because they run long. Their big thick pleated trousers can easily overwhelm a small frame.
 
That’s unfortunate indeed. It would’ve been my perfect first Chanel jacket if there’s no frilly thing lol
I agree. The cut of the jacket is nice and on the fitted side. It would definitely be more versatile if it is removable at least. Other than the design, I also don't like the material of it although I did not get into more details on it. I guess versatility is not a factor to weight much for the designer just like many Chanel RTW, material wise, are not meant to be cleaned/washed to extend the longevity to enjoy.
