Long line elegance and beautiful tailoring set the full length Amelia Trouser apart; a foundation piece to pair easily back with your wardrobe and feel a luxe put-togetherness.
A truly timeless piece designed to feel like luxury for you to rewear and rewear over and over again. Cut in the softest organic cotton corduroy in a luxe rich caramel tone, and finished with all the special details akin to Saywood; from the berry red stripe deep pocket bags for true functionality, topstitching, a V-shaped cut out at the centre of the back waist, to our signature embroidered flower, our trademark nod to nature.
The perfect tailored structure around the bum, hips and waist is cut to flatter, fanning out into a wide leg. With extra length hidden in the hem turn up for adjustability. Trimmed with a nickel-free silver zip fly, corozo jigger button and metal fly clips to fasten.
Composition: 100% Organic Cotton
Made in the UK, in London, by MAES
True to size
Softly tailored around the waist, bum and hips, sitting high at the waist just below the belly button. Wide A-line leg full length shape.
Wash less, love always
We recommend hanging your trousers to air outdoors, rather than washing after every wear. This way, they will last longer and also have a lower environmental impact. Spot clean marks with warm soapy water, and when it does need a wash, follow our care advice:
A note on our organic cotton and linen blend and corozo buttons
Our Amelia Full Length Trousers are cut from a beautifully luxe GOTs certified organic cotton corduroy from Italian mill Duca Visconti, based just outside Milan. Duca Visconti have been masters of corduroy since 1838, and still handcut the cord for a beautifully luxe finish; one of the only mills still using this traditional hand finishing technique. The trousers are handmade in the UK, in North East London at luxury manufacturer MAES, just down the road from the Saywood studio, keeping our carbon footprint minimal.
Our cloth is also certified STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®, which means it’s completely free from chemicals harmful to your skin. We’ve used corozo – known as vegetable ivory – for the button on the zipper, as it comes from a nut found in South America which can only be harvested once it naturally falls to the ground, making it a more sustainable choice. It’s also biodegradable. The zipper is nickel free and the tape made from recycled polyester.

Saywood was founded in 2020 by Harriet Saywood-Bellisario. As she beautifully put it: "The stories behind what you wear create that feeling of true joy when you get dressed each day, filling you with the confidence to take on the world, with the conviction that your most loved wardrobe pieces contribute to a positive fashion future, instead of the global fashion crisis". We absolutely love that!
At the heart of Saywood's story is a desire to reconnect you with the people and processes behind what you wear, and in doing so, press pause on throwaway fashion. Saywood does this through storytelling and by creating timeless pieces that you can rediscover each time you wear and rewear them.
Eco-friendly: Saywood uses materials like deadstock cotton, recycled cotton, Japanese denim and Supima cotton. They produce in small batches and offer mending services. If, after years, you're done with your product, they collaborate with OWNI; a peer-to-peer resale platform.
Local & fair production: Saywood works with factories in the UK and Romania for manufacturing and the fabrics are from factories in Italy and Portugal. These factories are all audited by multiple organizations and certifications to ensure ethical working conditions. As the factory in Romania increased its minimum order quantity, Saywood will switch to another supplier for future collections.
Vegan: as Saywood uses Codelite buttons, which are made from a protein from milk, the brand is not completely vegan. However, except for these buttons they are!
Good cause: Saywood has a Saywood for Good Initiative. At the end of each year, Saywood donates a percentage of its revenue to grassroots organisations aligned with their sustainability goals. These organizations are Labour Behind the Label (an NGO committed to better working conditions for garment workers), Trafino/Forever Lung (an organization protecting tropical forests) and Solar Sister (an organization investing in women's clean energy businesses in off-grid communities in Africa).
