W5484 Trousers Wide Flared Punto Milano & Nylon Inserts — Black Women's Italian
Two Fabrics. One Silhouette. Infinite Precision.
The W5484 is a study in material contrast and structural intelligence. The body is cut in a stretch Milano stitch — a dense, double-faced knit with the weight and composure of tailoring and the comfort of jersey. The side inserts are 100% nylon: smooth, taut, and directional against the textured Milano ground. Together they create a trouser that is simultaneously relaxed and precise, wide-legged and controlled. The bottom coulisse adds a final layer of adaptability — gather the hem, release it, wear it either way.
Why This Trouser Is Different
- Stretch Milano Stitch Body: 68% viscose, 27% nylon, 5% elastane — a double-faced knit with the visual weight of tailoring and the stretch of performance fabric. It holds its shape, resists creasing, and drapes with authority.
- 100% Nylon Side Inserts: Smooth panels set into the hip and thigh that contrast the textured Milano ground — a material dialogue that adds visual structure and a sportswear-inflected edge.
- Wide Flared Silhouette: A generous leg opening that sweeps from the hip — elongating, dramatic, and balanced by the fabric’s inherent structure.
- Elasticated Waistband with Internal Drawstring: Clean exterior with adjustable internal fit — the Milano stitch holds the waistband flat and smooth.
- Bottom Coulisse: A drawstring at the hem allows the trouser leg to be gathered or released — two silhouettes in one garment.
- Functional Pockets: Integrated without disrupting the wide-leg line.
- Viscose-Rich Composition: The 68% viscose content gives the Milano stitch its characteristic drape and sheen — a fabric that moves like a knit but reads like a woven.
- Made in Italy: Constructed in Italian ateliers with the dual-fabric precision and finishing quality that defines LA HAINE INSIDE US.

The Moment You Put Them On
The Milano stitch settles immediately — dense enough to feel substantial, elastic enough to move without resistance. The nylon inserts sit smooth against the hip, a cooler surface against the textured ground. The wide leg opens as you walk, the fabric holding its shape through each step without pulling or twisting. This is a trouser that performs as well as it looks.
The bottom coulisse is a detail worth exploring: gathered, it creates a tapered, almost harem-like silhouette at the ankle. Released, the leg sweeps wide and clean. Two moods, one garment — the W5484 adapts to the occasion rather than dictating it.
The Art of Punto Milano
Punto Milano — Milano stitch — is a double-faced knit construction that produces a fabric with two smooth, identical surfaces. Unlike single-jersey knits that curl at the edges, Milano stitch lies flat and holds its shape with the stability of a woven fabric. The viscose content gives it a natural sheen and fluid drape; the nylon adds durability and recovery; the elastane ensures the fabric returns to its original shape after stretching. It is a fabric used in premium knitwear and tailoring precisely because it bridges the gap between comfort and structure — a knit that behaves like a woven, a woven that feels like a knit. LA HAINE INSIDE US pairs it with nylon inserts to push the material conversation further: two fabrics with different surfaces, different weights, different origins — unified by precision cutting and Italian construction.
How to Wear It
- Tailored Power: Pair with a fitted Milano stitch top or bodysuit in the same black — a monochrome look where the nylon inserts and bottom coulisse provide all the visual interest needed.
- Contrast Texture: Wear with a chunky knit or bouclé jacket — the smooth Milano stitch and nylon panels read as sleek and directional against a rougher upper texture.
- Gathered Hem Edit: Cinch the bottom coulisse and wear with pointed-toe ankle boots — the gathered hem creates a tapered silhouette that balances the wide hip and thigh.
- Fluid Wide Leg: Release the hem fully and wear with minimal heeled mules — the trouser sweeps to the floor, the nylon inserts catching the light at the hip as you move.
Care Instructions
- Machine wash cold (30°C), gentle cycle
- Do not tumble dry — lay flat or hang to preserve the Milano stitch structure
- Cool iron if needed — do not iron directly on the nylon inserts
- Do not bleach
- Wash inside out to preserve colour and fabric integrity
