7 Fall Pants Trends More Enticing Than Your Best Pair of Jeans

While women are investing in leather and faux-leather pants in olive green, chestnut, and butter tones, to take on the trend in its most basic form, slick, black, structured styles are where it's at.

The '80s-inspired high-waist silhouette can be as loud as you want it to be. It makes a statement even in black or white, but there are some vibrant colours to choose from once you start browsing through your favourite brands. To keep the focal point on your pants, style with a simple, lightweight top, tucked in to draw attention to your mid-section.

The ankle cinch pant is everywhere, and perhaps the trendiest trouser of the season. Be it a sash, buckle, or wiry tie that tapers the hem, this style allows you to embrace a full shoe moment, but hopefully your footwear won't distract entirely from the cool cut.

We love all the wonderful shades corduroy is offered in this season. The material comes in everything from a pleated, wide-leg trouser and '70s crop flare to a skinny pant, and you can really make a statement in a bright colour, like sunshine yellow.

We're all about the flash of a satin pant on the streets this season. What's more, you've got options when it comes to silhouette. You can opt for a high-waisted trouser, a low-slung palazzo, or even cargos — satin finishes any pant shape you're into.
