While a pair of pants is usually the first thing you put on when getting dressed, they have become the final item more recently; the cherry atop the bakewell tart. In the topsy-turvy world of style this season, celebrities and party-goers have ditched their trousers, despite the cold.
Last week, Time magazine revealed its “person of the year” as Taylor Swift. She graced the cover in a pair of basic black pants worn over, not under, sheer black tights.Black pants were also the crux of Beyonce’s look at the premiere of her film Renaissance in London last month. Her Thom Browne couture gown deliberately cut to showcase high-rise pants with a gold, embroidered floral motif. Elsewhere, in a promotional video for her new single Houdini, Dua Lipa dances around a studio in a vest and pair of white cotton pants – triggering for anyone who forgot their PE kit during the 1990s.
