I've watched enough episodes of America's Next Top Model to know that when attending a casting, you want to wear something simple and pared back but still cool, with a touch of individuality. Well, that's exactly the look that supermodel and rising actress Kaia Gerber chose for a recent casting of her own (an acting one this time). Spotted outside of a casting office in Culver City this week, Gerber had on a cropped navy-blue T-shirt with an off-white canvas tote bag, oversize sunglasses, ballet flats, and, for her aforementioned hint of edge, a pair of trousers with a built-in miniskirt by Paloma Wool.
The skirt-over-pants trend has been rising the ranks in fashion for a while now, showing up in runway collections by a range of brands, including Sandy Liang for both S/S 24 and F/W 24 and Fendi F/W 23. Paloma Wool, a Barcelona-based fashion label founded by Paloma Lanna in 2014, is another fan of the hybrid bottoms, with pairs showing up in both S/S 24 and F/W 24 collections as well. Now that the style is hitting stores, celebs like Gerber are clearly catching on and falling fast.

These look so incredibly comfy.
I've seen so many chic New Yorkers in these.
I'm all for soft jersey trousers being worn for all occasions.
Who cares about sheer skirts when you can have sheer pants?
I wore pants like this daily in the mid 2000s.
Oh, these are very good.
This color is just so pretty.
Throw these on with a high-neck tank like this one from Reformation.
