I’m Normally Anti-Leggings, But This Divisive Spring Colour Trend Has Just Made Me Rethink
This spring, the chicest dressers are swapping black leggings for this divisive spring colour trend.
I was convinced nothing could tempt me into trying white leggings—until I spotted Rosie Huntington-Whiteley styling the divisive pair this week. Wearing form-fitting white leggings with a tonal, body-hugging top, she built a sleek, monochromatic outfit that made a case for the very trend I’d long resisted.
A noticeably fresher alternative to the dark black pairs that typically dominate a fashion person’s rotation, white leggings bring with them a sense of lightness and brightness that feels especially relevant as we move into the warmer months.
Where white leggings truly come into their own, however, is in pairing with white trainers. Streamlined from head to toe, the pairing feels polished and considered in ways that black leggings and white trainers could never achieve.
Of course, styling white leggings does require a little extra thought. Opting for skin-toned, seamless underwear is key to maintaining that clean, uninterrupted silhouette.
Now fully convinced, if you’re going to embrace leggings this spring, this once-divisive shade might just be the chicest way to do it. Read on to discover the best white leggings to shop now.
