What is the Brax Carola fit?

The Carola is Brax's straight leg fit. It gives a little more room through the hip and thigh than the slimmer Mary, then runs straight to the hem, so it suits a curvier figure and looks neat with flats or an ankle boot.

What is the difference between Brax Carola and Mary?

Both are Brax fits with a button and zip. The Carola is straight with more room at the hip and thigh, while the Mary is slimmer and follows the leg more closely. If one feels tight at the hip, try the other.

Do Brax Carola trousers come in corduroy?

Yes. Alongside the smart cotton trousers and five-pocket styles, we carry the Carola in Brax's cosy corduroy for autumn and winter. You will find all our cords together on the cord trousers page. The cords come in colours that change each autumn, so it is worth checking back.

Where can I buy Brax Carola trousers in the UK?

At Shirley Allum on the High Street in Shaftesbury, Dorset, and online at shirleyallum.co.uk. We have stocked Brax for many years and can help you choose between the Carola and Mary in the shop. If you are unsure which size to take, our team can help you compare the two fits in person.

Is there a Brax Carola jean as well?

Yes. The Carola fit comes as a jean too, in denim and coloured denim. You will find those on our Brax Carola jeans page, so you can wear the same fit in trousers and jeans. You can try the trouser and the jean side by side in our Shaftesbury shop.

Brax Carola Trousers

The Brax Carola is a straight leg trouser with a little more room through the hip and thigh, so it sits comfortably without gaping at the waist. It is the fit many of our regulars come back to season after season.

We carry the Carola in smart cotton trousers, five-pocket styles and cosy corduroy, in navy, brown, blue and mulberry red. If you prefer a closer fit, the Brax Mary is cut slimmer through the leg.

The same fit comes as a jean too, on our Brax Carola jeans page. Come and try both side by side in Shaftesbury and we will help you find your size.
