Seven Chic Satin Trouser Outfits That Are Making Me Forget All About My Jeans This Spring

Look, I’m not saying I’m over jeans, but if there’s one trouser trend that might give them a run for their money this year, it’s the silk trouser trend. These flowing, beautifully draped trousers have been popping up on my social media feeds more and more recently, and every look more effortlessly elegant than the last. Sure, they may not be the most practical outfit staple (especially for someone as stain-prone as me and in a country as rained-on as the UK), but when the occasion calls for it, a silk trouser is arguably one of the easiest pieces to turn to for creating a sophisticated yet modern ensemble.

So when it came to planning my new-season outfits, I found plenty of inspiration on how to wear this trouser trend for the season ahead, whatever the great British weather has in store for us. Stylish Europeans, for example, are opting for monochromatic outfits, using the satin and silk to break up tonal looks by playing with texture. Elsewhere, there are the polished evening looks (hint: tailoring is key) along with more casual outfits that are imbued with that quiet-luxury aesthetic.
