As we head into spring and the weather slowly gets sunnier, our long winter hibernation is coming to an end and so is winter dressing. Goodbye to bundling on layers, gigantic puffy coats and a dreary sea of black as commuters leave the office. Now, it’s time for an injection of colours, new-season styling and playful prints.
Set your sights on striped trousers. Taking high-street stores by storm, countless iterations are popping up to suit everyone. One thing they have in common? Their effortless ease that will have you joyfully ditching your jeans! It’s time to re-gear past perceptions of striped trousers, these flattering new wide-leg versions help to elongate the legs and flatter all body types.
Whether you’re more fond of the classic blue-and-white stripes from Boden or Albaray, or want to turn your wardrobe on its head with a bright-orange-and-pink style, you’ll find a pair to love all spring/summer long.
Why it’s the hottest trend of summer
Influencers have already started styling their striped trousers at the first sight of spring, pairing them with oversized blazer and crisp white vest.
La Veste
Spanish brand La Veste’s vintage-inspired take on the trend has style director Melanie Rickey pining for a pair of her own. The creative duo behind the brand, Maria De La Orden and Blanca Miró, show how they style La Veste’s Pippi trousers, each in their own distinct style.
