Londoners Are Now Wearing Cream Satin Trousers Instead of Jeans

Over the past week I’ve been deliberately looking for ways to elevate my winter wardrobe. The season may have only just begun, but already I can feel myself falling into the trap of wearing the same jeans and jumpers on rotation. But no more!

Instilled with a sudden inclination to level up my daily looks, I took to social media to see what new winter trends and fresh outfits inspired me. After a mammoth scrolling session, I went on to survey my saved folder to see if anything jumped out at me. Lo and behold, between the hundreds (genuinely, hundreds) of street style, influencer and celebrity snaps I hoarded, one very clear common denominator emerged—cream satin trousers.

It would appear fashion people have also been looking for an alternative to their failsafe denim, as so many looks I found centred around silky trousers. While black and brown pairs were also prevalent, I was surprised at the sheer amount of cream and white satin trousers, though, thinking about it now, I really shouldn’t have been.

Elegance is still a core trend in fashion right now, with brands continuing to serve up refined pieces such as bouclé jackets, large suede bags, and chic slingbacks. Satin trousers fit seamlessly into these sophisticated ranks—the fluid fabric catches the light in a way that always makes them look expensive (no matter how much you spend on a pair) and gives the trouser itself a graceful silhouette, while the creamy colour way ensures they feel classic. Another key factor that runs through the elegant aesthetic is versatility and, I dare say, I think you’ll struggle to find something a cream satin trouser won’t go with.
