Style ideas: when and how to wear your wide leg viscose trousers

For a polished daytime look, pair wide leg viscose trousers with a fitted blouse or a lightweight knit and ballet flats.

When evening calls, try a silky camisole or a sequin-knit top with heeled sandals to elevate your silhouette while maintaining comfort.

Wide leg viscose trousers through the seasons

Spring: A crisp shirt, light cardigan and soft viscose trousers create a fresh, approachable silhouette. Pair with loafers or slingbacks for a refined daytime look. Summer: Lightweight tops, camisoles and sandals keep you cool while the drape stays elegant. Autumn: Introduce a knit sweater or a chunky cardigan and ankle boots for a chic transitional outfit. Winter (indoor/outdoor): Layer with a longline coat and tights beneath for warmth and structure.

Colours, materials and textures

Choose versatile colours such as black, navy, taupe or stone for everyday ease, then explore soft pastels or rich earthy tones for style variety. Finishes range from matte crepe to subtle satin sheen, all crafted in viscose or viscose blends for smooth drape. Look for breathable linings and soft-hand feel to ensure comfort from morning meetings to evening plans.

Fit and comfort tips

• If your waist is defined, opt for a high-rise cut to lengthen the leg line.
• A wide leg should skim the hip without clinging; check the drape when sitting to ensure comfort.
• If the fabric creases easily, choose a slightly looser fit or a higher elastication in the waistband where available.
• For petite frames, consider cropped lengths or shorter hems to avoid overwhelming your silhouette.

How to care for your wide leg viscose trousers

• Viscose: Check the care label, but many viscose trousers benefit from gentle machine wash on a cold cycle or hand wash. Use a mild detergent.
• Drying: Lay flat to dry or hang to air-dry; avoid tumble drying to preserve drape and colour.
• Ironing: Iron on low to medium heat with steam, inside out if possible to protect finishes.
• Storage: Hang with enough space to prevent creasing and maintain the fluid silhouette.

Which wide leg viscose trousers are the most comfortable, and how do I pick the right size?

Look for viscose trousers with a comfortable waistband (elasticated, drawstring or structured with a zip), smooth seams, and a fabric with good recovery to prevent sagging. When in doubt, choose a size that allows a gentle drape without pulling at the hip. If you’re between sizes, sizing up once for comfort can improve the overall line and movement.
