In spring 2021 it should be airy and comfortable. So what would be more suitable as a center piece than wide pants?
Wide trousers are one of the quick-change artists in the fashion world. However, the different models require a certain instinct. Otherwise, the woman is in danger of drowning in a shapeless mass of matter.
The palazzo pants
The palazzo trousers are opulent because of their name alone. Because the popular wide-leg model looks great and is particularly suitable for women who can no longer wait for summer. The great thing: The Palazzo can be worn by both slim and curvy women. It is only important that the trousers do not stretch your buttocks and thighs. The best way to do this is to combine tight-fitting tops and tuck them into the waistband and voilà: a perfect waist and long legs. The very “cheeky” can already grab a crop top and throw on a denim jacket when the temperatures are cooler.
The general rule is: Patterned tops only go with single-colored pants and vice versa, otherwise the look quickly looks restless. For the bottom, high heels or wedges are recommended – especially for small women. The palazzo pants are also good casual: with flat shoes or sneakers, the outfit gets a casual touch. Our next pants model is not quite as casual, but very elegant.
The Marlene trousers
Comfortable and chic at the same time? Two styles that come together in the Marlene trousers. The pants with the wide legs have now turned out to be a real fashion classic and have long been considered the epitome of emancipation. After all, it was named after the film icon Marlene Dietrich (“The Blue Angel”). Unlike the Palazzo, the Marlene trousers are straight, not cut that wide and usually have a crease. Its androgynous style makes it incredibly versatile and particularly popular with business ladies – for example with a tailored blouse and a matching blazer.
At the Milan Fashion Week, the designers presented colorful models with oriental patterns. Etro relied on warm earth tones for his Marlene pants and did not shy away from XXL blazers and oversized blouses. If you prefer something sexy, you can try a body and wear high heels with it. Loafers, sneakers or rough boots, on the other hand, create an exciting break in style, as influencer Caro Daur shows on Instagram.
The culottes
Cool, cooler, culottes! The culottes are nothing really new, but a loyal companion in the fashion world. For years the culottes have been seen on the catwalks of the world and on the red carpet. In summer, airy models made of linen and cotton are the best sellers, on cooler days women like to use wool or cord. But what to combine with it? If you like things a little simpler, take a white T-shirt, that’s always possible. It’s super casual too the combo of actress Blake Lively (33): She relies on a jeans culottes in pink, a light turtleneck sweater and delicate brown high heels – the spring look is ready.
