A hybrid jean-trouser, Amelia has all the ease of denim, but the smarts of tailoring. Cut from premium Japanese cotton and naturally dyed in deep indigo, they look good and feel even better on, thanks to our focus on crafting a superior fit.
Tailored but not tight, they sit neatly just below the belly button, and fan out into a relaxed A-line shape to just above the ankle. Clever darting on the front and back flatters the hips, bum and waist, while the roomy crotch means they’re still comfortable when sitting. Slanted side pockets keep things streamlined – and practical, too, with their deep pocket bags.
Finished with a hidden corozo button and zip-fly fastening, back patch pockets, contrast navy topstitching and our signature flower embroidery, they work anytime, anywhere.

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 Japanese denim and corozo buttons
Our Amelia culotte trousers are crafted from premium Japanese denim that’s been woven by artisans using traditional techniques in Ibara, Japan, and naturally dyed. They’re made in Romania by Mantra, one of the few manufacturers we work with abroad for its efforts to carbon neutrality and zero-waste stance.
Our cotton 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. The fabric on the zipper is made from recycled polyester and the metal is nickel free.

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).
