Loose pants are in style and they are definitely here to stay for a long time. Pair them up with the right tops and accessories and you are good to go. Photo Courtesy: iStock
Elevating a casual T-shirt with wide-leg denims is not a problem. The trick is to play with silhouettes. Tuck the front of the tee or shirt into the pants or wear short tops that end right where the waistband of the pants begins. This will help add structure to a loose or flared bottom. Create silhouettes with harness belts, vests, across-the-shoulder fanny packs, a tight and thin inner under a super cropped top, or a corset over your tee. Don’t be afraid of a loose tee and wide-leg denim combination. Oversized clothes are always chic. Photo Courtesy: iStock
High-waist pants are great until you have to sit down. A personal trick is to get a size or two larger than the usual and pair this bulky bottom with a bralette or short top and jacket or an open shirt. Don’t underestimate the comfort of a mid-waist pair that sits well on your hips. Go semi-casual and chic with denim, corduroy, cotton and linen, and formal with dress pants. Photo Courtesy: iStock
Apart from regular beige or moss green (not camouflage) cargos, try a pair with a pop of colour — pink, purple, light blue or even white. Style your pair with a corset or crop top. Photo Courtesy: AFP
Be dramatic with your choice of wide-leg pants. Add print on print. Linen co-ords will give you casual chic. For a more dressed-up look, try fitted co-ords with a bralette. Photo Courtesy: iStock
Opt for the usual tried and tested Birkenstocks or chunky sneakers for a casual look, heels or heeled boots on calf-length wide pants, or break rules and add kitten heels on almost floor-sweeping pants. Photo Courtesy: iStock
