The Wide Leg Is Here to Stay: 8 Pants I'm Buying to Round Out My Wardrobe
After decades of wearing skinny jeans, I feel so grateful for this moment when every comfortable pair of pants is having its moment: cargos, joggers, knitwear, and chinos are everywhere to be found these days! I genuinely can't imagine pulling skin-tight stretchy denim over my hips ever again. In fact, it even makes me shrug off the idea of wearing tights, too, and I can't say it's a bad thing. Wide-leg pants look elevated, chic, and–dare I say it—cool. We know now that it's not just a trend. Wide legs are here to stay, and each and every one of us look all the more confident because of it. Run, don't walk, to the roundup I have in store for you. It covers the best styles in denim, twill, knit, and silk, and none of them will require you to sit on your bed to get them on.
Aralyn Beaumont joined Who What Wear as the copy editor for branded content after a career in food media. Years of poring over intricate recipes with a fine-tooth comb and working with high-profile chefs has prepared her well for working with fashion's top brands while honoring Who What Wear's voice. Her background as a research editor makes her a finicky editor who will probably care too much about making sure all copy is as factually accurate and aligned with the house style guide as can be. Maybe it's because she's a Gemini, but her personal style is impossible to pin down: One day you'll see her in a turtleneck sweater tucked into a midi skirt with heeled boots, and the next, she'll be wearing mom jeans, a white Hanes tee, and classic Vans. At the end of the day, her style reflects her various moods. Sometimes it will be feminine and elegant, and others it will be grungy or androgynous. Certain things will always remain constant, though. She'll forever be on the hunt for the perfect pair of high-waisted jeans.
