Fashion Girls Are Swapping Jeans for These Unlikely Trousers
Pink corduroy flared trousers have got to be one of the least likely things you'd ever spontaneously crave, however, they are quickly becoming the influencer alternative to jeans for the new season. While it might sound like a trend that has come from nowhere, this was bound to happen as soon as Céline included sweeping rose-coloured cords in its A/W 17 collection. Mango is always quick to respond to a designer cue, and so dusty pink high-waisted cords are one of its key trouser styles for A/W 17.
Instagramming pros like Camille Charrière and Irina Lakicevic have been sporting these £50 Mango trousers this month, while other versions by Acne and Isabel Marant have also been street style success stories already. Just when you thought millennial pink had touched everything, eh?
