When the temperature climbs, Arvina is the trouser you'll reach for first.
Cut from a featherlight viscose-blend fabric, these trousers move with the air rather than against it. The wide, flowing leg adds a touch of effortless resort-wear elegance, while the high-rise elasticated waist sits comfortably without digging in.
There are no fiddly zips, no stiff waistbands, no clinging — just a relaxed, flattering shape that drapes beautifully over the hips and skims down the leg.
Wear them with sandals and a linen shirt on holiday, with trainers and a tee in town, or dressed up with heels and a silk camisole for dinner. They pack flat, barely wrinkle, and feel like nothing on the skin.

FAQ
Are they see-through? The fabric is light. Solid colours (black, navy, olive) are fully opaque; lighter shades may show a subtle outline in direct sunlight — nude underwear recommended.
Are they suitable for hot weather? Yes — this is exactly what they're designed for. The viscose blend breathes and stays cool.
Will they crease in a suitcase? They pack flat and crease minimally. A quick hang in the bathroom releases any travel wrinkles.
Can I wear them to a wedding? Yes — paired with a silk camisole and heels, they read smart-casual easily.
UK delivery? 4–7 working days. Free over £35. Free returns within 14 days.

How to Measure Yourself
For the most accurate fit, use a soft tape measure and wear well-fitting underwear. Stand naturally — don't suck in or stretch up.
- Bust / Chest: Measure around the fullest part, tape parallel to the floor.
- Waist: Measure around your natural waist — the narrowest point, usually about 2.5 cm (1") above your belly button.
- Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips, usually 18-20 cm (7-8") below your waist.
- Inseam (for trousers): Measure from your crotch to your ankle bone, along the inside of your leg.
