The verdict
Fit
Palazzo cuts are wide through the hip and thigh with a long inseam. Despite the 'slim' label, this will have significantly more volume than Frame's other styles; sizing up is rarely necessary.
Quality
Frame extends its quality standards to its looser cuts. This should be well-finished, though the wider silhouette may show seaming imperfections more.
Is the price fair?
At $478, you're paying the same as the Reboot but for a less traditional silhouette. Fair for a branded palazzo if you actually wear this style, but it's less versatile than a straight or slim trouser.
Best for
People who work in creative industries or relaxed-formal settings and want the drape of a palazzo with tailored seaming.
Care
Dry clean to preserve the drape and prevent bagging at the knees.
What owners report about Frame pants
Third-party coverage of Frame's pants range is almost entirely about its denim. Owners describe soft fabrics with stretch worked into nearly every cut, and one aggregation of 355 reviews across the web scored the brand 4.17 out of 5, with positive reviews heavily outnumbering negative ones. Reviewers tie the roughly $230 average price to Los Angeles manufacturing, and more than one recommends buying the line secondhand instead. The most repeated caveats are erratic sizing between styles and rises that sit lower than the product descriptions suggest.
- Strengths
- Owners consistently praise the comfort — soft, stretch-forward denim that several reviewers say fits them better than anything else they own.
- Watch out for
- Sizing and rise vary noticeably from style to style, and the stretch blends will not wear as long as all-cotton denim.
- Sizing
- Reports conflict — one long-term owner calls Frame true to size while an aggregate review roundup says some styles run large — so check the per-style measurements rather than assuming your usual size.
