Wide Out

This fall’s coolest silhouette isn’t skinny and pencil-like—in fact, it’s the opposite. Wide-leg trousers in everything from tweed and chino to denim and silk have made a roaring comeback, and just about every designer line has an option perfect for any size, shape, or budget.

This fall’s coolest silhouette isn’t skinny and pencil-like—in fact, it’s the opposite. Wide-leg trousers in everything from tweed and chino to denim and silk have made a roaring comeback, and just about every designer line has an option perfect for any size, shape, or budget. The flattering A-line highlights your best parts (think: those womanly curves) while camouflaging your, ahem, least-favorite features. Pair them with a chino blazer, a ruffled tuxedo top, or classic white T—these classy pants will be a staple this season. — Blake Miller
