POL Amara Pant

$319.00

POL sizing. Cut in Australian sizes, 8 to 14. Full measurements in the size guide below.

Complimentary delivery on this piece, Australia-wide.

Ramie is a plant fibre, light and dry in the hand. POL call the Amara a modern take on suiting and made it in printed ramie, so the structure comes from the cut, not the weight of the cloth.

The tailoring is all present. Fixed waistband, a zip fly under a double hook and bar, five belt loops, hip pockets and back pockets, then a wide leg to full length. In a size 10 that is 107.5cm down the outside leg.

The Amara Silk Shirt carries the same print. Together they make a suit in ramie and silk. With a plain knit the pant stands on its own.

POL is an Australian label, founded by Sam Jones in 2008, and cuts in Australian sizes, which are the same as UK sizes. Knits and some tops come in letter sizes instead: an XS is an AU 8, S an AU 10, M an AU 12, L an AU 14 and XL an AU 16. The measurements below are the house's own, in centimetres, taken from the body rather than the garment.

Size chart

6 XXS 84 68 94
8 XS 88 71 97
10 S 93 76 102

14 L 103 86 112
16 XL 108 91 117

Measurements in centimetres. Body measurements, not garment measurements.

Choosing between two sizes

POL's chart gives the body measurements each size is built on. The house suggests comparing them with your own. Its models generally wear an 8 unless a piece says otherwise. Any style we know to run differently is noted in its Fit line.

How to measure

Bust: around the fullest part.
Waist: around the slimmest part of your natural waist, between the ribcage and the navel.
Hip: around the widest part, at the top of the legs.

Caring for POL knitwear

Check the care label first. If a knit is not dirty, air it between wears instead of washing it.

Hand wash in cool water with a gentle or delicates detergent. The house advises against woolwash, which can make dyes run. A little hair conditioner leaves natural-fibre knits softer.

Roll the knit in a clean towel to lift out the water, reshape it while damp and dry it flat in the shade. Never on the line, which stretches it. Store it folded, not on a hanger.

Some pilling is normal on cotton, merino and cashmere, mostly under the arms and where a bag strap rubs. Hand washing helps, as does keeping knits away from fleece-lined jackets and rough surfaces. A pilling shaver, run lightly over the fabric pulled taut, lifts what appears. Take off jewellery that could snag before you put a knit on.

For everything else, follow the care label sewn into the piece.

Still not sure

We have handled these pieces and can tell you how a particular style sits against the chart. Write to us before you order, or come and try it in Red Hill. The full edit is in our POL collection.

Cold gentle machine wash. Line dry in the shade. Warm iron while still slightly damp, or leave the creases, which is rather the point of linen.
