It's official, cargo pants are back, and Katie Holmes just showcased the easiest and most stylish way to make this nostalgic trouser trend work for 2025

90s silhouettes have been back in fashion for several seasons, but not all styles are as easy to translate to our 2025 wardrobe as others. Enter cargo pants. Once the mainstay of 90s girl bands, you might be surprised to know that this relaxed trouser cut is back this season, but have no fear, it's had a grown-up makeover that makes it extremely wearable.

Stepping out in New York, Katie Holmes showcased just how to do this throw-back look in a modern way. Appearing chic and relaxed in a pair of silky, deep navy cargo pants, these trousers were a far cry from the multi-pocketed, multi-strapped cotton iterations of the late nineties/early noughties. Instead, Katie Holmes' statement trousers gave a nod to current utility trends and offered a stylishly practical ensemble that would work day or evening.
