Though many, including this writer, would argue that we are living in a post-trend world, where nearly any style inclination can be satisfied, fresh ideas, colors, and shapes still manage to trickle off the runways and into our shopping carts each season. One such proposal is the slim-fit pant, which has been gaining traction in the fashion sphere lately, becoming a fixture in latest street style looks.
Vogue’s Favorite Slim-Fit Trousers
Trousers, even slimmer ones, are hardly a new concept—many would consider them a timeless wardrobe staple. Still, their current presence at the forefront of fashion feels distinct. Once primarily associated with suits and boardroom attire, the slim trouser took on a more seductive and idiosyncratic attitude this season on the runways of trendsetting brands like Prada, Dries Van Noten, and Khaite.

Whether you’re opting for an extra leg-elongating high-waisted pair, experimenting with stirrups, or indulging in corduroy, there are countless ways to style them to suit your look. Here are seven outfits with the Vogue seal of approval.
The High-Rise
Start with the high-rise. Khaite makes an excellent option that is sure to add a couple of inches (visually) to any silhouette. A voluminous shape on top adds a bit a drama, and balances out an extra-slim bottom.
The Slim Suit
Suits, of course, will never go out of style. Here, a classic gets a trend-forward upgrade with a slim pant, fitted blazer, and light pink shirt. Suede sneakers bring a sporty, practical touch.
The Corduroy
If wide-leg corduroyscorduroys feel too slouchy for your style, try them in a slimmer shape for a streamlined and sophisticated feel. Boat shoes complete the look.
The Slim Denim
The same principle applies to slim denim which, in a classic blue wash, is a more polished take on your typical pair of skinny jeans. Extend the attitude with a jacket and slim boots.
The Stirrups
Stirrup trousers were a top offering on the fall runway of Dries Van Noten. Dress them down with a cool leather bomber and ballet flats.
The Slim Pleat
For those who want something slim but not too form-fitting, a pleated trouser many be the key. This pair from Cos is sure to become a wardrobe staple.
Super Skinny
More ambitious types on the slim-pants-spectrum may want to try the extra skinny pant. Take a cue from the Celine runways and pair them with a blazer, low-profile retro sneaks, and a silk scarf knotted around the neck.
