How To Wear And Style Wide Leg Pants

First things first let’s bust some myths with some quickfire questions on wide-leg pants:  

Do wide-leg pants make you look shorter?  

Contrary to most people’s fear, wide-leg pants work to elongate the legs… a definite win for those of us with petite pins! 

Style tip: To create maximum impact and height, ensure pants fall below ankle length and shoes just peak out underneath! Bonus points if you wear a small, comfortable heel which will lengthen the leg even more and often gives the illusion of better posture.    

How do you wear wide-leg jeans over 40?

Don’t let age get in the way of style! For a mature and elevated look, pair a classic pair of wide-leg jeans or pants with a crisp button-up  – this screams timeless and fabulous.

How to wear wide-leg pants plus size?

Wide-leg pants are fabulous in enhancing your curves and providing definition where you want it. Pair with a fitted top that compliments your figure to maximise this flattering silhouette.

How to wear wide-leg pants casual?  

Go for linen, cotton or micro modal in classic colours or fun prints to echo a more casual look and feel. Not only do these fabrics wear well but they ooze an effortless flair that’s synonymous with everyday dressing. Pair it with a classic tee or printed top and finish with white sneakers to keep it cool and effortless.

What top should I wear with wide pants?  

When selecting a top to pair with wide-leg pants it’s important to keep in mind the proportions that you’re trying to achieve. Look for tops, shirts or tanks that skim the waist or can easily be tucked as this will give the illusion of a shorter torso, gifting your legs some extra height. However, longer more tunic-like tops can be equally as flattering especially when paired with pants in the same hue as this gives an effortlessly streamlined look.
