Palazzo Pant in Nutmeg by Mela Purdie
This is a PRE ORDER STYLE
It hasn't arrived at our warehouse yet, but we'll ship it to you as soon as it does. We are unable to provide firm delivery dates, however Mela Purdie drops several times a month so lengthy delays are not anticipated.
A Fluid Velvet Pant That Changes How You Feel in an Outfit
This is not just another wide-leg pant. Cut in Mela Purdie’s Stretch Panne, the fabric carries a soft sheen that catches light subtly, giving depth without shine. It moves with the body, creating that effortless drape that makes a simple outfit feel considered.
The silhouette is intentionally generous through the leg, balanced by a clean, elasticated waist that sits smoothly without adding bulk. It’s the kind of pant that works equally well dressed up or pared back — and once it’s in your wardrobe, it tends to replace everything else.

Faulty goods
If the fault is minor we will repair the item at no cost to you.
If the fault is major we offer a refund, exchange or store credit. This is when the item:
- has a problem that would have stopped someone from buying the item if they had known about the fault
- is unsafe
- is significantly different from the sample or description
differences in pattern placement to images on our website are due to standard manufacturing processes and are not considered "significantly different" and are therefore not considered a fault - doesn’t do what we said it would, or what you asked for and can’t be easily fixed
We will not accept faults considered due to wear and tear, incorrect fit or improper washing and/or drying of a garment.
