Best trouser leggings 2023: Women

We know, trouser leggings might seem like a bit of a contradiction. A cross between cigarette pants (Audrey Hepburn’s famously favourite staple) and your comfy jersey leggings doesn’t quite seem possible – but trust us when we say, it works.

Don’t get us wrong, there’s definitely a place for structured trousers in your wardrobe. But for the days when you don’t want to compromise comfort for style, trouser leggings should be your go-to. Due to their high elastane content, they’re especially handy if you struggle with sizing. And, thanks to their simple construction, you can wave goodbye to seams digging in and buttons leaving impressions on your skin.

Looking to incorporate a pair into your capsule wardrobe? We recommend sticking to neutral colours; if you buy trouser leggings in staple beige, navy, cream or black, you’ll find yourself reaching for them over and over again, from season to season. In fact, the perfect smart/casual pair will work for the office, relaxed days at home, weekend errands and even low-key party looks.

You can always count on the The White Company to create luxurious basics you'll never want to take off. The roll-top waist on these staple trouser leggings is not only super flattering, it also makes this style even more versatile. Choose to wear yours high-waisted when lounging or fold the band over for a low-rise fit when you're out and about.

Say hello to your new favourite work trousers. Blended with a touch of stretch for all-day comfort, M&S’ high-rise trouser leggings have a flattering cropped fit and a smart slim silhouette. We like this versatile navy shade but the brand also offers black, grey and beige options.

These versatile trouser leggings will work with so many things already in your capsule wardrobe – from tunic shirts to longline cardigans.

A bootcut trouser is always flattering and can be worn with everything from chunky trainers to sandals. Crafted with a clever four-way stretch, this pair from Amazon is designed with yoga in mind, however we'll be wearing ours for walking and lounging, too.

Whistles’ trouser leggings have a slim silhouette that is formal enough for work but still comfy enough to lounge in. Style this navy pair with structured tailoring at the office, then switch out blazers for cosy cashmere jumpers when you’re WFH.

Cut from a stretch jersey, Boden’s trouser leggings are a comfy update on the classic cigarette style. The zipper detail, welt pockets and structured waistband make this pair smart enough to wear to work. Plus, you’ll be able to find the perfect cropped fit by choosing from three lengths – petite, regular and long.

If you love the leather trouser look but you’re not a fan of restrictive fabrics, check out M&S’s stretchy pleather pair: the elasticated waist provides a truly flexible fit.

We love H&M for well-priced, easy-to-wear basics. The brand’s ankle-length pants have a formal feel, thanks to the sharp front creases, but are still super comfy thanks to an elasticated waistband. Wear yours with a floaty blouse to the office and switch to a longline Breton top at the weekend.

These pull-on trousers are an everyday staple we want in our wardrobe. Cut to look like jeans or chinos, they're actually incredibly stretchy and have a fastening-free waistband. Wear yours with oversized knits and shirting.

These harem trouser leggings are a real wardrobe essential. Cut from comfortable jersey, this style has a laidback feel that is perfect for casual looks (just add a Breton tee and you're good to go), but also feel smart enough for the office thanks to its side pockets and tapered silhouette.

Leather trousers can be restrictive. To ensure a comfy fit all day long, opt for a legging instead of structured pant. We love this style from Amazon – it is crafted with a hint of stretch and has flat-lock seams to prevent chafing.

These khaki trousers, made from a smoothing, sturdy jersey, are a comfy take on this season's cargo trend. Wear yours with longline shirting or an oversized jumper.

If you’re looking for a more sustainable pair of trouser leggings, Ninety Percent’s cotton-blend jersey pants will do nicely. We like how the brand uses organic and recycled materials in all its pieces. Wear this sporty style with hoodies and trainers when running errands.
