Grandpa Trousers: The Latest "Ugly" Trend To Come For Your Jeans

While spring definitely feels like the time to embrace all things pretty à la florals and eyelet, there's an underlying "ugly-cool" aesthetic on the rise—and we have an unlikely style star to thank for it: our grandparents. We've shared before just how popular the "grandma" dressing trend is, but it's about time that grandpa fashion started to steal the spotlight, too, and after reporting on the grandpa jeans trend we noticed fashion people embracing a similar style that we're dubbing "grandpa" trousers.

What are "grandpa" trousers exactly, you ask? They're defined by a loose-fitting shape, and usually feature a high-rise and come in a number of "boring" color schemes like tweed, plaid, grey, brown, and beige. So basically, they're the epitome of practical dressing and fashion people are doubling down on that vibe by wearing them with other closet staples like cardigans, blazers, sneakers, and ankle boots. To see how the trend is being worn by the stylish set and shop our favorite pairs on the market, just keep scrolling.

Style Tip: A brightly-hued knit enlivens the look.
Style Tip: Let your pant hems pool around your ankles like so for a look that couldn't be more current.
Style Tip: Pair tailored trousers with crisp white sneakers and a graphic tee for a cool ideal off-duty vibe.
Style Tip: You can't go wrong by keeping things clean and classic.
Style Tip: To add polish to the ensemble, wear with. a structured blazer and sleek pumps.
Style Tip: Lean into the cozy vibes that these roomy trousers give off—a crewneck sweatshirt and fun sneakers do the trick.
Style Tip: Looking to dress them up a bit? We love the idea of pairing the trousers with a pretty bra top, another big spring trend, and a boxy blazer.
Style Tip: I embraced the "grandpa" vibe at full-force and wore mine with a checkered waistcoat.
Style Tip: Another grandpa-adjacent trend we love is cardigans. Take a cue from Grece here and wear yours with the bottom few buttons undone.
Also available in more sizes.
Style Tip: A chain-link belt and structured handbag immediately take the trousers into the modern-day.
Style Tip: The all neutral everything palette works especially well with loosely tailored trousers.

Next up, the seven spring trends with the best and worst cost-per-wear.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
