She Wears The Trousers

Pants, strides, britches: there are as many words for “trousers” as there are cuts to choose from, and since only the brave go barelegged in fall, it’s the ideal moment to take a fresh look at styling your slacks. Naturally we’ve done all the legwork…

The Sharp End

If you’ve relegated trousers to off-duty ensembles, think again. A razor-sharp, fine-wool pair will walk you from work days to evening events, requiring little more than a flats-to-heels switch. Cue the most versatile piece in your closet.

Mad For Plaid

FW26 is the season to invest in a suit – ticking the boxes for sharp tailoring and heritage style. Worn at work or play, with a white shirt or silky chemise, plaid pants are the pinnacle of power dressing, while the full suit serves unsurpassed swagger.

Roll Out The Barrels

Barrel jeans remain the denim cut du jour, and now we’re expanding our wardrobe of wide-leg pants with barrel chinos in heavy cotton or luxe wool-mix. The result is a modern play on a preppy classic that’s made for walking into the weekend.

Rock’n’Roll Stars

While black leather jeans will always be associated with snake-hipped lead singers, this season’s loose fit pair does rockstar with a relaxed edge, making them an easy pick for after-hours dressing – sexy, yes, but without the excess.

Coming Up Roses

Taking the heritage trend to the next level, floral pants capture the requisite mix of modern cut plus old-school print. Worn with stylishly unfussy separates, this laidback pair keeps things extra comfy – just like a classic chintz seat should.
