WIDE-LEG
Wide-leg is a trouser silhouette with an equally wide, loose leg along the whole length from hip to hem. Unlike the flare, which widens only downward, wide-leg trousers keep the volume evenly, creating a straight, loose and draped silhouette. Such a cut is comfortable, gives freedom of movement and adds effortless, slightly retro elegance to a look (recall the fashion of the 1930s and 1970s). Wide-leg trousers visually lengthen the legs, especially combined with a high waist and heels. They work well with a tucked-in or fitted top to balance the volume of the bottom. They are made of various fabrics — from flowing to dense. Wide-leg is a silhouette of comfortable, relaxed elegance, in which a loose, straight cut combines comfort with a refined, elongated and effortlessly fashionable look.
