Prep your calves

Love them or hate, there’s no way of avoiding them: capri pants have officially been revived for the spring.

The controversial calf-grazing trend was popularised back in the day by mid-century icons like Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, and Brigitte Bardot in the form of sleek pedal pushers. Jump to the turn of the century and capri pants graced the silver screen in Carrie Bradshaw’s more casual ensembles on Sex and the City, proving the three-quarter length trouser’s versatility and ability to make a fashionable statement.

Nowadays, like trucker caps and jorts, capri pants are another Y2k trend returning to the spotlight, receiving a seal of approval from A-listers like Bella Hadid, Sabrina Carpenter, and Daisy Edgar-Jones. And while we admit we were initially on the fence, a deep dive into the modern capri has reportedly won us over.

Perfect for the summer, capri pants are as chic as they are convenient to beat the heat in style. A simple all-black pair offers structured tailoring and easy styling, while those looking to lean into the vintage element of the trend can opt for lace or gingham that’s delightfully fun and feminine. We’re also a fan of capri jeans for effortlessly cool streetwear style. Complete the look with kitten heels or ballet flats and you’re well on your way to your most sartorial season yet.
