ORGANIC COTTON TWILL
A new Organic Cotton Twill — 97% organic cotton with 3% spandex for refined stretch — giving it a firm, soft-touch hand that holds the sculpted line of the barrel leg.
The Barrel Pant and Straight Pant are considerately designed and slowly made in Australia.
THE BARREL PANT
The Mela Purdie Barrel Pant is cut in a new Organic Cotton Twill — a firm, flexible, soft-touch fabric with refined stretch that holds the shape of its curved, barrel leg. A flat-front waistband with a jean zip-fly keeps the front clean and considered, while an elasticated back waistband adds quiet comfort, so the pant feels as easy as it looks modern.
Ankle-grazing, iron-free and effortlessly packable, it moves from day to night without a second thought. Considerately designed and slowly made in Australia, it's a limited-edition piece with a genuine sense of the season.
How To Style the Barrel Pant
- For travel: With the Box Sweater — iron-free, packable and ready to land.
- For work: With a tucked LS Top to balance the rounded leg with a clean line up top.
- For the weekend: With the Box Tee, relaxed and quietly modern.
Frequently asked questions
What is a Barrel Leg, and how does it fit? The Barrel Leg curves gently out through the thigh and tapers back in towards the ankle for a soft, rounded silhouette. The fit is generous, so we recommend considering a size down; it sits at an ankle-grazing length with a flat-front waistband and jean zip-fly, an elasticated back waistband, side slit pockets and patch pockets at the back.
How do I care for the Barrel Pant? Cold machine wash or dry clean, and hang to dry where possible. Ready to wear straight from the wash — part of what makes it such an easy, packable travel option.
What colours does the Barrel Pant come in? Two: black and ivory. Black is the sharp year-round neutral; ivory is a soft, warm-toned neutral that pairs beautifully with black, camel, stone and tonal creams. As a limited edition, availability is limited.
THE STRAIGHT PANT
The Mela Purdie Straight Pant is cut in a new Organic Cotton Twill — a firm, flexible, soft-touch fabric with refined stretch that holds its shape and moves with you. A flat-front waistband with a jean zip-fly adds comfort, so the pant reads tailored but wears easy.
Ankle-grazing, straight style leg that proves to be iron-free and effortlessly packable. Considerately designed and slowly made in Australia, it's a limited-edition essential built to last.
How To Style the Straight Pant
- For the office: With a crisp black shirt tucked and the wrap-tie left loose, the Straight Pant reads as polished tailoring without ever feeling stiff.
- For the street: Paired back with a plain tee and pointed flats, the Ivory or Rice colourway keeps things clean and architectural, letting the line of the leg do the work.
- For evening: With a satin blouse and a sharp heel, any colourway moves from studio to street to evening without missing a beat.
Frequently asked questions
Is this pant true to size, or should I size down/up? The Straight Pant is cut with a relaxed hip and straight leg, so we recommend sizing true to your usual fit. If you prefer a closer leg line, you may want to size down.
What's the difference between Ivory and Rice? Ivory leans cooler and slightly brighter; Rice sits warmer, closer to a natural undyed cotton tone. We recommend viewing both in natural light if you're deciding between the two.
How should I care for Organic Cotton Twill? Cold machine wash or dry clean, and hang to dry where possible. Twill softens naturally with wear and washing — a little texture and character over time is part of the fabric's charm.
