The pair you reach for before you have decided anything else. Romy sits on a soft elasticated waist with a tie at the front, so there is nothing to fasten and nothing to dig in. The fabric is a lightweight weave with the dry, textured look of linen, and the leg falls straight and easy, long enough to wear full length or turned up twice at the ankle. Deep slanted pockets at the side. Seven colours, from white and beige through soft green to terracotta: buy the one you need, then the one you want.
