What is it?:
The Wet Look Capri Pants by Coquette are mid-calf length, shiny pants that are totally opaque, breathable and somewhat stretchy. The inside is a matte black material that is very comfortable against the skin for long periods of wear.
The capris can be worn just about anywhere since they are not see through and can be paired with a pair of patterned heels to complete a rockabilly or biker/rocker look.
These capri pants are available only in black but come in sizes Small, Medium, Large, Extra Large and 1X/2X.
Material: 80% Nylon, 20% Spandex
Nylon is strong and resilient and offers good barrier and high fatigue properties. It is also hypo-allergenic and offers good resistance to oils, greases and solvents. Nylon has good resistance to a wide range of chemicals and a high abrasion and weathering resistance.
Spandex is a very strong and durable material, able to be stretched repetitively and still recover its original length. It is resistant to body oils, perspiration, lotions and detergents with no static or pilling problems.
The shiny side of the material feels very smooth and has a slight sparkle to it that is typical of other Wet Look items. The inside matte material feels soft and will catch a little on rough, dry hands. The entire garment is very comfortable and breathable but it will only stretch so far so keep that in mind when choosing a size.
Design: All measurements are taken with the garment laid flat
The waistband measures about 14" across and stretches only 5" more and had a tag attached to it with a small safety pin. From the waistband down the front to the bottom of each leg measures about 24 1/2" long. The inseam on these capri pants is about 18 1/2" long and each leg opening measures 6" wide and will stretch another 4". Across each leg at thigh level measures about 8" and will stretch another 4" and for those who are interested, the rise (top of waistband to crotch) measures about 7" long.
All the seams and stitching on these capri pants are done with quality. There were no runs, rips or loose threads at all.
Sizing: True to Size
Coquette Size Chart for Medium:
Waist ~ 26"-30"
Hip ~ 38"-40"
Maximum Rise ~ 7"-8"
My Sizes:
Waist ~ 29"
Hip ~ 37 1/2"
Rise ~ 7"
The sizing is perfect for me at this moment. I say that because I just lost 10 pounds so I'm at 132 lbs. and these capris sit perfectly on my hips for a low rise fit that I'm used to. Ladies who have a juicier bum/thighs may want to order up a size because these don't stretch as much as you think they would. The great thing about these is that they do not become see through when stretched to the maximum.

Storing, Care and Packaging:
You could keep these pants on the hanger that came with it and put it in a closet or you can lay them flat in a drawer or on a shelf.
These pants are hand wash only in warm water. Lay them flat or hang to dry. Do NOT bleach, dry clean or toss in the dryer.
The capri pants came on a plastic Coquette hanger with a tag attached to the waistband via a small safety pin and it was all wrapped in a cellophane bag with a resealable adhesive flap along the bottom.

I still love these capri pants! They are so adorably sexy and comfortable. They haven't had any quality issues recently and all the seams, etc. are still in great condition.
