Sure, You Can Put on Those "In point of fact Model" Trousers to the Workplace
If you're on the hunt for a pair of trousers that will slot into both your working and weekend wardrobes while lengthening your legs at the same time, let us recommend wide-leg trousers. While the wide-leg style is certainly nothing new, this XXL silhouette has been a microtrend this season, worn by the likes of Jeanette Madsen and Camille Charrière.
Now more than ever, wide strides have become increasingly flattering. Thanks to a higher waistband, your legs look twice as long and the volume is more evenly balanced out. Win! For a modern office look, follow Tamu's lead in her tailored trousers and opt for a smart pair in a neutral but interesting hue. If you're anything like us and are already thinking of your holiday wardrobe, then opt for sweeping, breezy trousers in a sunny colour for the ultimate summer-in-the-city look.

Style Notes: Go tonal like Jeanette Madsen and team a belted high-waist pair from Mango with a white tee and a lightweight trench. So chic.Style Notes: When it comes to colour, Ganni's ultra-wide, ultra-bold jeans are top of our wish list. Camille styles her sunny yellow pair with an equally punchy top, pointed pumps and a woven tote.Style Notes: If standout hues are not your thing, look to Anne Johannsen for style inspiration and opt for classic indigo jeans that fall just below the ankle and team with a crew neck knit, New Balance trainers and cat-eye sunnies.Style Notes: No trend would be complete without a nod to florals, and Rosa Sofia tempts us to consider mixing our prints for the ultimate party look.Style Notes: This trend isn't all about exaggerated shapes, subtle styles like this pleat front option spotted on María Bernad will look every bit as chic when paired with tailored separates for easy off-duty dressing.Style Notes: If you’re petite, or concerned about feeling drowned in your new super-sized trousers, why not consider something cropped? Look for shapes that skim the waist and hips for a flattering silhouette.Style Notes: Erica Davies proves the polka-dot trouser is easier to wear than you might think, choosing to style a chic monochrome iteration with a button-up blouse and flats.Style Notes: Tamu McPherson's green tailored pair adds plenty of length to her look, which she achieves with a stacked platform and a shirt neatly tucked into the high waistband adding inches to her legs.Style Notes: If anyone can tempt us to try a pair of wide-leg rainbow trousers, it's Lucy Williams. This silky pair is perfect for the beach with a bandeau bikini, and even chicer with a white tee, slides and gold hoops.Style Notes: For work, try swapping your sensible grey suit for a bold blazer and a matching wide-leg trouser. To dress down your tailored two-piece, just add a striped top, neck scarf and sunnies.Style Notes: A vertical-stripe print down the leg makes these extra flattering.
