These star print trousers give Quirk’s _You Are a Star_ artwork room to move: yellow
stars in cat-eye sunglasses and black boots repeat across a purple ground, with 
the changing texture of crushed velour beneath them.

## An original drawing, with its own answer

[Quirk founder and designer Melynda](https://shopquirkla.com/vintage-fashion-boutique/)
drew the character by hand with watercolor pens. People ask whether it’s a boy or
a girl. Her answer: “It’s a star!” The sunglasses, boots and unapologetic pose are
all part of the original drawing.

## Star print trousers in crushed velour

A wide leg gives the print a generous canvas. The elasticated waist has an adjustable
drawstring, and lined side pockets keep the shape useful beyond the photograph. 
Wear them with a close-fitting top to emphasize the volume, or repeat the artwork
with the [You Are a Star bandana](https://shopquirkla.com/product/youareastarsilkscarf/).

 * Purple ground with yellow, hand-drawn star characters
 * Crushed velour with a textured, light-catching surface
 * Wide legs, elasticated waist and drawstring
 * Lined side pockets
 * Handmade to order in XS–2XL, including plus sizes

The model photographs show the crushed velour trousers. Top, bandana and other styling
accessories are sold separately.

## Fit and body measurements

Use your waist and hip measurements to choose a size, with particular attention 
to the hips. The chart describes body measurements, not the dimensions of the finished
trousers. Measure around your natural waist and the fullest part of your hips; keep
the tape level without pulling it tight. The inch ranges are rounded.

 Body measurements for choosing your size  |  Size |  Waist, cm |  Hips, cm |  Waist, in |  Hips, in |  
   |  XS |  54–62 |  79–87 |  21–24 |  31–34 |  
 |  S |  62–70 |  87–95 |  24–28 |  34–37 |  
 |  M |  70–78 |  95–103 |  28–31 |  37–41 |  
 |  L |  78–86 |  103–111 |  31–34 |  41–44 |  
 |  XL |  86–94 |  111–119 |  34–37 |  44–47 |  
 |  2XL |  94–106 |  119–131 |  37–42 |  47–52 |
