The Fenton Jeans are a high-waisted wide-leg jean from Parisian label FRNCH, in cream with a fine navy pinstripe. A quieter alternative to plain denim, cut in 100% organic cotton.

The leg is cut wide and full from a high waist, falling to a deep turn-up at the hem. A fine navy stripe runs the length of a cream ground — close up it reads as a proper pinstripe, from across a room as a soft ivory. The cotton is firm and unwashed, so the trousers hold their line rather than clinging.

Fit and sizing: high-waisted with a wide, full-length leg and turn-up hem. Available in sizes 26 to 31.

Fabric and care: 100% organic cotton, from FRNCH's CHANGE range. Wash cool inside out with like colours. Do not tumble dry.

How to wear it: with a plain knit or a simple tee — the stripe is the pattern, so let it be. Works with navy, black and every shade of brown, and lifts an outfit that plain denim would flatten.
