Double the Waistband,
Double the Fun
Not the biggest fan of the return of low-rise jeans? Probably the solution is to double up with the high-waisted trend. Inject a modern twist to your summer wardrobe staples with the double waistband style, whether it’s in the form of jeans, shorts or skirts. A fail-proof way to style the piece is to pair it with a cropped tee and leather jacket to allow the eccentric piece to steal the spotlight!

90s Noughties Tailored Utility Styling
Not your typical off-duty baggy cargo trousers, the tailored iteration sits at the more polished and formal fitting end, offering a soft tailored look to your summer ensembles. Go bold by snapping on a high-cut jumpsuit under a pair of baggy cargo pants and match it with a blazer to make a truly chic statement. You can also experiment with bright statement colours that contrast generously against these utilitarian pants.
