I Always Get So Many Compliments When I Wear These High-Street Linen Trousers
If there's one thing fashion people can't stop wearing right now, it's linen trousers. It's no surprise really, considering they're comfy, chic and perfect for this ongoing heatwave we're experiencing. They work effortlessly on summer holidays, or running errands on hot weekends in the city—even for the office. Linen trousers are so in demand right now, and such a summer classic, that most retailers have a number of designs to choose from. However, there's one pair specifically that I keep seeing fashion people—from influencers to editors—wearing on repeat, and that's Arket's linen drawstring trousers.
I myself now have them in three colours, and I always get complimented on them every time I wear them. Plus, I can confirm they are the easiest thing to pull on in the morning when it's scorching outside but you still want to feel nice and put-together. I usually throw mine on with a vest top and maybe a shirt over the top, and influencers from the lovely ladies of @wearetwinset, to chic Parisienne @annelauremais are following suit.
These particular trousers aren't new. In fact, Arket has been re-releasing them every summer for a number years now (yes, they're that classic), and they sell out each time. By some miracle, though, they've just been restocked in a mix of neutrals and nautical stripes.
So, keep scrolling to shop fashion's favourite linen trousers right now...
