How to Style Wide Leg Trousers

Pleat or No Pleat?

This is a small detail that makes a big difference. Incorporating pleats into your trouser can help add shape for a more flattering look. From subtle to dramatic, the choice is yours on how much extra fabric you want to add to find a shape that's right for you.

Adding a Taper

Tapering the leg creates a balance between wide and slim leg trousers, and is a flattering shape for a shorter silhouette, particularly if you also like a slightly cropped leg.

Straight/Wide leg blend

If you have slightly longer legs and the tapered look isn’t for you, why not go for a wide/straight blend. With a straighter leg, you can have a smarter style while maintaining a looser fit. This shape tends to work best without pleats to maintain the straighter silhouette.

Going all out

If you’re loving the wide leg trend, get those extra pleats and make those legs even wider for a fuller, flattering look like Lucy Spraggan's favourite trouser.

Wide leg trousers are a great everyday essential this summer. The looser fit and breathability make them a comfortable choice during the warmer months.
