The L&F Pant Bible
The perfect pant exists - let’s find yours! Whether you’re after effortless tailoring, a sleek silhouette, or all-day comfort, we’ve got you covered. Our guide to L&F's Essential Pants breaks down the key styles, fits, and how to wear them—so you can find your perfect pair with ease. Let’s dive in!
As a woman, shopping for pants can be a minefield. Aside from the limited size ranges often on offer in stores, there's the matter of whether or not they fit your shape and your proportions to consider too. Whether you're a size 22 woman looking for well-fitting pants or a petite height woman looking for well-proportioned pants, the journey is often one of frustration more than pleasure.
Size Inclusive, Style Inclusive - Pants For Every Woman
We hear You! As a size inclusive brand, we have women of all shapes and sizes coming to us for solutions. With over 10 years of experience under our belts, we understand that women are all different. Just because 10, size 18 women for example, might all shop the same style of pant, it doesn't mean that same pant will fit each woman in the same way. Within a single dress size, heights and proportions can vary dramatically. That is why, at Leina & Fleur we don't just offer a wide size range, we offer a comprehensive range of styles and lengths as well.
But with so many great-looking pant styles to choose from, where do you start? Right here of course, with the this comprehensive guide to L&F's Essential Pants - a complete breakdown of capsule-wardrobe-worthy pants and all of their length options. So whether you're tall, regular or petite height or whether you prefer full length or cropped pants, let this be your L&F pant bible.
1. Straight Leg Pants

Best-Selling Pants for Petite, Regular & Tall Heights
Monroe Pant
A pant that does it all, there's a reason why these straight-cut, wide leg pants are our best-sellers! With a deep, double layer pull-on waistband and fluid Heavy Dry Touch Jersey fabrication, the Monroe Pant is super comfortable for all-day wear. It's also machine washable and crease-resistant (no ironing required!) - perfect for every day.
Thanks to their exceptional cut and high quality fabric, these full-length pants glide elegantly to the feet, elongating the silhouette.
Available in sizes 8 to 24 and in short, regular and tall lengths, these classic pants come in the core colourways of Black and Navy with some seasonal colours dropping throughout the year. They're a capsule wardrobe hero - great as work wear pants and comfortable for casual wear. They even translate beautifully as chic black evening trousers for event and cocktail wear.
THE MONROE PANT - WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY...
"At a curvy 171cms with a long body and very short legs, I had despaired of ever finding a flattering black pant I could wear with flat shoes. NOW I HAVE THEM!
Monroe Petite Pants are the perfect length, falling just below the ankle but not grazing the floor. Thank you! And properly petite ladies do not be discouraged - my leg length is only 98cms despite my height."

Soft Tailoring Straight Leg Pants
Drew Pant
The Drew Pant is our straight leg pant with tailoring details. Made from Scuba Crepe fabric, this elegant trouser comes with L&F's signature 'stretch appeal.' This lightweight fabric is crease resistant and easy care - making these great pants for work wear comfort and smart-casual wear.
While still full of stretch, their tailoring details add structure. These include a functioning waistband with belt loops, a concealed zip fastening (to preserve a sleek line when with untucked tops), and side front pockets.
Power up the look - go for a matching blazer, jacket or vest for suit style with a contemporary edge.

" My favourite pants ever! The Scuba Crepe moulds easily around my hips and drapes elegantly to the floor. The wide legs balance my hips and look so professional.
These are my third pair of Drews because I think that when you find the perfect pair of pants, you need to stick with them and look fabulous in them."

Cropped, Straight Leg Pants in Short, Regular & Tall Lengths
Paxton Pant
The Paxton Pant - effortless meets refined. Crafted from Ponte fabric, this pant offers the perfect balance of soft stretch and shape retention, ensuring a smooth, polished look that lasts all day.
The pull-on design provides ease and comfort, while the elasticated back waist facing allows for a flexible yet secure fit. Sitting at the natural waist, the slim, straight-cut skims the leg beautifully, creating a streamlined silhouette that flatters every shape.
Designed with practical front waist pockets and a side split at the ankle, the Paxton Pant brings modern versatility to your wardrobe.
The Ponte fabric provides a sleek, structured finish, resisting creases while maintaining its shape with wear - and yes, it's machine washable too.

the paxton pant - what our customers say...
"My Black Paxton's are my go to for travelling. I love the deep front pockets which I use to carry my passport and phone safely separately. It makes it easier rather than rattling through a coat pocket or handbag. It doesn’t crease and washes well."

2. Wide Leg Pants

Wide Leg Pants in Short and Regular Lengths
Bradley Culotte
Meet the Bradley Culotte - the wide leg pant that brings effortless sophistication to your wardrobe.
Made from our signature Heavy Dry Touch Jersey, these pants are designed for all-day comfort with a deep, double-layer pull-on waistband that smooths and flatters. Like the much-loved Monroe Pant, they also feature functional pockets (because we know you need them!). But where the Monroe has straight-cut legs, the Bradley Culotte makes a statement with its wide flair and cropped-length silhouette.
The beauty of these pants? The length is entirely up to you. With multiple options available, it’s not just about height—it’s about how you want to wear them. Opt for a true cropped culotte for a bold, fashion-forward look, or go for a longer length to create the effect of a full-length wide-leg pant.
However you style them, they’ll keep up with your busy life—crease-resistant, machine-washable, and endlessly versatile.
the bradley culotte - what our customers say...
"Bradley pants…. What’s not to love, the fit, the comfort; the stylish go-to pants for EVERYTHING. Just love the new petite length for me, they were fantastic before, but now they are perfection in a pair of pants.'

What sets the Indi Pant apart is its tapered leg, single inside seam and ankle cuffs with a subtle tuck detail. The 7/8 length makes it easy to style up or down, with flats or heels. Again, the length options of Regular and Tall, give you the choice of a full length or cropped length pant.
