Gwyneth Paltrow Just Wore the Classic Trouser Trend That French Women Live in Every Winter
As a fashion editor, there are few things I enjoy more than scrolling through Instagram and landing on a carousel of excellently crafted outfits. Of course, there are plenty of creators who produce content like this on the daily, which I'm always very appreciative of, but fewer celebrities take part.
However, every so often I manage to spot a sleek slideshow of outfit inspiration straight from the camera roll of one of my favourite stars, and my little celeb-obsessed heart fills with joy. Lighting up my feed this week is Gwyneth Paltrow, who just posted her winter-style rotation to her IG. I quickly noticed that she's already wearing the specific trouser trend French women also reach for every winter. Opting for a white, collarless blouse tucked into a pair of camel-coloured corduroy trousers from her own label, Goop, Paltrow's already on to the winter staple that's about to take off.
Forgoing jeans or basic wool trousers, Paltrow's chic corduroy trousers gave her look a polished energy whilst incorporating a wintery twist and a point of interest into her look. With a ridged pattern and textured feel, these trousers have a slightly coarse finish that gives them a casual energy and helps them to pair well with other cosy items including pony-hair accessories, wool knits and fluffy coats.
A mainstay in the winter wardrobes of French women, corduroy trousers are on par with jeans for wearability and versatility, and the thicker fabric makes them toasty, too. Often styled with simple tees in a relaxed way, this classic trouser also looks the cosy part when worn with a relaxed jumper or a sleek roll neck. With roots dating back to the '70s, corduroy trousers retain a slightly retro feel that French women seem to find hard to resist. Whilst the trend has come far since the days of bell-bottom cords, the fabric's nostalgic charm makes corduroy trousers feel particularly relevant right now, as the fashion industry enjoys another revival of the '70s-inspired boho fashion trend.
Chic, retro-inspired and French-girl-approved, the corduroy trouser trend is destined to be a hit this winter, so to shop the style that has Gwyneth Paltrow's sign-off, read on to discover our edit of the best corduroy trousers.
