Lingerie-inspired dressing made its presence felt via 2025’s obsession with lace-trimmed silhouettes, from dresses to tops. Yet in 2026, trousers are getting the boudoir treatment, too. Worn by every style savant in her Euro summer era, these billowing trousers are known for their balloon-like voluminous silhouette and cinched hems, usually made of lightweight fabrics like cotton or linen. The length, which usually grazes the ankle, gives it a sense of polish and a sartorial sense of Parisian chic; it’s just the right amount of sensuality. Perfect for your 9 to 5, 5 to 9, and every hour in between.
The trick to styling them is balance. Pair a lace-trimmed bloomer with a crisp tank or oversized shirt for daytime ease, or lean into the bohemian spirit with a delicate blouse. For something more office-ready, add a structured blazer, simple flats and minimal jewellery and you’re good to go.
So, as we dive deep into the bright sunny days ahead, a Vogue-approved shortlist of bloomer pants that will soon be a cornerstone of your every outfit. Shimmy on up.
