If you’ve been wearing denim nonstop since the temperatures dropped, the New Year is your cue to give your jeans a break and test-drive winter’s new must-have: suede pants. The trend is already all over our feeds, with fashion insiders like Sofia Richie Grainge shelving their hard pants in favor of buttery soft trousers for the cold-weather season.
And for a good reason. Suede pants exude the same effortlessness as your favorite pair of jeans, but with a lusciously rich texture that stands out in a sea of puffer jackets, wool coats, and knit sweaters. The silhouettes and fits are just as versatile, with options including high-waisted wide-legs with dramatic puddled hems, slim cigarette cuts that can be tucked into tall boots, and subtly flared styles that perfectly frame pointed-toe heels.
There is also a vast color variety with suede pants. In warm browns (cognac, chestnut, chocolate, etc.), the fabric looks rich, instantly making an outfit appear more luxe. In off-whites and light camels, it extends the life span of your favorite white denim outfits into winter. In black and olive green, the style can masquerade as tailored pants (shhh, we won’t tell your boss).
Styling suede pants is simple, too: Swap them in anywhere you’d normally reach for jeans. Pair with a white T-shirt and fluffy coat for the weekend, a turtleneck and blazer for office days, and a fitted going-out top with a statement belt for evenings out.
If you need more winter outfit inspiration, Richie Grainge paired her loose-fitting suede pants from her just-launched brand SRG with a cream turtleneck, pointy shoes, and a structured clutch, a styling master class in looking effortlessly put-together without trying hard.
