Linen Pants

Women's linen pants

Linen pants are the summer half of the Forcast pants range: light, breathable and cut loose enough to move on a hot day. They suit warm-weather offices, weekends away and anywhere a tailored suiting pant would feel like too much. Sizes run from 4 to 18.

What is in the range

Most linen pants here are wide or straight through the leg. The Ivy Linen Wide Leg Pants and the Annie Wide-Leg Trousers are the fullest, while the Janis Straight Pants give the cleaner line. The Ami Linen Elastic Back Pants have a flat front with stretch at the back, so they look tailored and feel easy. The Lilit Linen Chambray Pant brings a softer, washed look to the range.

What to wear them with

Linen looks best kept simple. Wear it with a sleeveless top or a plain tee tucked in, and a sandal or flat. For the office, a shirt from shirts and blouses in the same tone keeps the line neat, with a light jacket on hand for air conditioning. Linen creases with wear and that is part of how it looks, so save it for days when a sharp crease matters less.

Fit and sizing

Linen sits looser than suiting, so the waist is the measurement to trust rather than the leg. If you are between sizes, check the size guide before you order. A wide leg reads longer with a heel and more relaxed with a flat, so decide on length with the shoes you will actually wear.

How to shop it
