According to creator guided platform LTK, searches for linen trousers are up 1100% this year. We’re not surprised. Neutral-tones and white linen trousers are a summer classic, but 2023 is seeing some up-to-date details that we’re utterly here for. Look for pleated waists alongside casual drawstring versions, tapered designs as well as wide-leg silhouettes plus newer colourways and patterns including PJ-style stripes, khaki greens and bright pastels.
We’re also here for linen’s sustainable credentials. While cotton is a super thirsty crop that requires epic amounts of water and pesticides to grow (one t-shirt would need 2700 litres to produce – more than the average person drinks in 2 ½ years) linen doesn’t need extra irrigation – making it a less environmentally-impactful fabric choice.
If you’re someone who favours easy outfits – you know the ones… the type that you you can just throw on and go, without having to think too much about – then owning a pair of linen trousers is non-negotiable. Think of linen trousers as summer’s answer to black leggings and you’ll see exactly what all the fuss is about, we promise.
