Timeless Pinstripe Mid-Rise Wide-Leg
"The pinstripe is the ultimate pattern power move. For those who usually keep their prints up top, flipping the script with a striped pant instantly refreshes your solids and makes your wardrobe feel brand new. It’s modern and polished - perfect for your 9-5 and when you’re off-duty."
Mid-Rise Barrel Pants - The Timeless
"The barrel leg is the new quiet icon of the trouser world. With a sculpted silhouette that’s roomy through the thigh but tapers at the calf, it adds instant style credibility to your closet. Choose a rich chocolate brown to nail the season’s trend story or keep it sleek in classic black."
"A classic piece that brings sophistication. These pants have a built-in front panel that smooths, supports and shapes - giving you the confidence to tuck, half-tuck, or French-tuck with zero hesitation. It’s not just another straight leg; it’s a game-changer that elevates every outfit from basic to pulled-together."
Striped Wide-Leg Pull-On Pant - The Timeless
"The wide-leg pull-on is the definition of effortless. With its athletic-inspired drawstring waist, it walks the line between laid-back and luxe. Available in five colours this season, the olive green is my personal must-have for its versatility and fresh, modern edge."
Straight-Leg High-Rise Pants - The Modern Stretch
"The straight-leg - it’s elegant, endlessly comfortable and pairs with absolutely everything. Think of it as the backbone of your closet - the pants you’ll reach for when you want to look sharp without even trying."
