Our Favourite Party Pants Are Having A Moment

If you thought metallic pants ended with the disco movement in the seventies, then this latest trend may have you shook, but also pleasantly intrigued, because they are well and truly back.

Metallic pants are back and overtaking the fashion scene, although this time, they are not only seen at festive events but also in your office, local cafe, and down the street. Yes, you heard that right, the renowned party pants have come back to replace your trusty jeans and serious work pants.

The metallic pants made its comeback debut at runways for the Spring/Summer 2023 season, and among the designer brands seen showcasing the pants were Valentino, Gucci, and JW Anderson.

Although it may be confusing swapping over to such a loud and confident trend, there are many ways to make it work for you. As we approach the cooler months here in the southern hemisphere, a simple cosy neutral-shaded jumper and long coat is a great pairing for pants similar to the Victoria Beckham bold green leggings, and the elegantly shimmering silver Altuzarra wide-leg pants.

Although, we also highly recommend showing off the pants and highlighting them as the scene stealer they are, something the Oséree Lumière feather-trimmed metallic pants will have no trouble doing. Or, for something a little extra that gives off that metallic shimmer, but does so through the addition of sequins, the Valentino cropped feather-trimmed wide-leg pants promise to make a statement.

Ultimately, no matter the option you go for, metallic pants promise a chic and elegant look that can easily elevate a look away from being bland. While it may feel a little bold at first to wear metallic pants, we can promise that your perfect match is just a quick scroll away.
