Women’s Pull-On Pants FAQs

What styles of pull-on pants are available for women?

At Chicos, we carry a wide selection of pull-on pants for women, including:

• Cropped pull-on pants. Made to hit just above the ankle, these pants slim and elongate the leg.
• Wide-leg pull-on pants. These pants feature a wider leg from thigh to hem for a loose and comfortable fit that flatters.
• Capri pull-on pants. Capris hit mid calf and are the perfect alternative to shorts and skirts.
• Tapered pull-on pants. A stylish, double-pleated front adds visual interest to these easy pants.
• Ponte pull-on pants. Premium ponte fabric found in Juliet pants combines softness and structure for a comfortable yet flattering fit.

What makes pull-on pants different from regular pants?

Regular pants feature buttons, zippers, snaps, or other types of closures. On the other hand, pull-on pants are often made with an elastic waistband, offering a convenient option you can slip on and off without the fuss. This waistband allows for plenty of movement and flexibility, while also resisting excessive stretching throughout the day to ensure a flattering fit.

If you find yourself feeling too constricted by traditional pants, women’s pull-on pants may be the perfect solution.

How do I choose the right size for pull-on pants?

To find the perfect size, consult our size chart. Look for the Chico’s size that corresponds with your typical U.S. size.

Then, measure your waist and hips to confirm. To measure your waist, measure the smallest point of your midsection. To find your hip measurement, measure at the widest part around your hip bones.

The good thing about ladies’ pull-on trousers is that the elastic waist makes it easy to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit.

Are pull-on pants suitable for work and casual occasions?

Absolutely! Ladies’ pull-on pants are versatile closet staples you can dress up for work or dress down for a more casual occasion. Get inspired with these ideas:

• Work-ready. Style straight ponte pants with a crisp button-up shirt. Pair them with a sleek pair of flats and finish the look with simple gold jewelry, such as small hoops or a pendant necklace.
• Casual days. Wear Brigitte™ pull-on pants in a light color with a simple women’s top. Add a pair of sandals and a few pieces of everyday jewelry, such as a cuff bracelet and earrings.

Are pull-on pants suitable for all body types?

Their versatility is one of the best things about pull-on pants for ladies. The elastic waist makes them suitable for a range of body types, no matter your hip-to-waist ratio. To find the most flattering option, try a few different types of women’s pants. A wide-leg pant can help balance out a curvier shape, while a slim fit may be more flattering on narrow body types.
