10 Ways to Wear Wide-Leg Pants
The silhouette does a lot of the styling work already — here's how to balance it on top.
With a fitted tee tucked in to balance the volume on the bottom.
Cropped and paired with loafers to show a little ankle.
With a blazer for an elongated, polished silhouette.
Tucked-in blouse with a statement belt.
With a cropped sweater for a balanced proportion.
With heels peeking out just slightly beneath the hem.
With a bodysuit for a clean, tucked-in line.
Under a long cardigan for a monochrome, flowing look.
With a cropped jacket for contrast in proportion.
With sneakers for an unexpectedly casual, relaxed pairing.
Wide-leg pants need a fitted or tucked top to avoid looking shapeless — once the top half is fitted, almost any layer works.
