Short description

Sustainability is at the heart of Saywood: our Amelia culotte trousers run with the theme in their use of as-good-as-new deadstock cotton sateen and timeless-with-a-twist design that lasts.

Pared-back and elegant, it’s the considered details that really make this piece. Sitting neatly below the belly button, they flare into an easy A-line shape just above the ankle. Clever darting on the front and back gives shape without restricting the hips, bum and waist, while the roomy crotch has plenty of give when sitting. Discreet side pockets keep things streamlined – and functional, too, thanks to their deep pocket bags.

Finished with a hidden corozo button and zip-fly fastening, back patch pockets, khaki topstitching and our signature embroidered flower motif, they’re a wardrobe mainstay.


Also available in Japanese denim and navy check.


Composition: 100% Cotton, from deadstock

Made in Europe, by Mantra

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:

  • Machine wash 30 degrees
  • Wash with similar colours
  • Medium iron
  • Do not bleach
  • Do not tumble dry

A note on our deadstock cotton and corozo buttons

Our Amelia culotte trousers are cut from deadstock cotton sourced from Riopele, a fabric mill in Portugal, which is certified STeP by OEKO-TEX® for sustainable production. They’re made in Romania by Mantra, who we love for their drive for carbon neutrality and repurposing of textile waste.

We’ve used corozo – known as vegetable ivory – for the jigger button, 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 fabric on the zipper is made from recycled polyester, and the metal zip teeth are nickel free.

About the brand

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).
