The Best Pants for Fall

Update your fall wardrobe with these great pants. Whether dressing for the office, a casual weekend outing, or even a date night, a good pair of pants will elevate your look. This season, we're highlighting the best pants for fall, including a special nod to the effortlessly chic Donni Silk Pant.

Wide-Leg Trousers

Wide-leg trousers are in style this fall. They are dressy and comfortable, perfect for a long day at work or a weekend brunch with friends.

Why They Work for Fall:

Wide-leg trousers pair well with chunky sweaters or tailored blazers.
With fabrics like wool or corduroy, they offer warmth for those cooler days while still looking sleek.
I dress mine up with Prada heels or dress them down with sneakers, Khaite booties, or loafers.

Style Tip: Warm autumn hues like camel, burgundy, or deep green are so great. Wear them with a fitted turtleneck or a cropped jacket for an effortlessly chic fall look.

The Donni Silk Pant

One of the most coveted pieces this fall is the Donni Silk Pant. These pants are a great choice. They merge the splendor of silk with a casual design and are faultless for running errands, kids' events, or even on weekends. They keep selling out. So get on the waitlist and buy them as soon as you get a notification that they are back in stock. For reference I'm 5'8", 130 pound and I wear a small.

Why They Work for Fall:

The Donni Silk Pant is incredibly versatile for fall, even though the fabric is silk. Such fluidity in fabric looks great with more structured pieces, like wool coats or leather jackets, to balance you out and elevate you.
The lightweight yet insulating properties of silk make these pants a great choice for layering. Wear them with boots and a chunky knit for daytime errands, or style them with heels and a sleek blouse for an evening out.
They come in neutral colors like black, ivory, and taupe, which are easy to mix and match with other fall staples.

Style Tip: I wear my Donni Silk Pant with an oversized cardigan or tank and a jean jacket. Add ankle boots and gold jewelry to complete a polished, fall-ready look.

Leather (or Faux Leather) Pants

Leather pants are a fall staple that adds a touch of edge to any outfit. Whether you prefer genuine or faux leather, these pants are always in style during the cooler months. I have six pairs from SPRWMN. Five pairs are slightly cropped. I wear them with sneakers and a T-shirt or sweatshirt for casual daytime looks. I wear them with heels or booties and a cute blouse or camisole for date night. SPRWMN leather pants are the best. (I just bought their below-the-knee brown leather skirt).

Why They Work for Fall:

Leather pants are ideal for the transitional weather of fall. They provide enough warmth without being too heavy, making them perfect for crisp days and cool nights.
Faux leather options are much more accessible and affordable these days. They give you the look and feel of real leather without the high price tag or ethical concerns.
Leather pants come in many different cuts—skinny, straight-leg, and wide-leg—so you can find a pair that suits your body type and style.

Style Tip: Opt for black or deep brown leather pants and pair them with a cozy knit sweater or a chic blazer. For a more casual look, wear sneakers or dress them up with block heels.

Trousers

Trousers are a great addition to anyone's wardrobe, especially for fall. Tailored pants elevate any look, from the office to date night.

Why They Work for Fall:

Trousers can be made from wool or cotton and and they have functionality and style. They provide warmth while maintaining a polished look.
They pair beautifully with blouses, turtlenecks, and blazers, making them the perfect pants for layering in the cooler months.
Tailored pants come in high-waisted designs that elongate the legs, making them incredibly flattering for all body types.

Style Tip: Wear trousers with a pair of loafers and a silk blouse for a nice office outfit, or a turtleneck and a wool coat for an ensemble that would work nicely from day through evening.

Corduroy Trousers

Corduroy is one of those fabrics that screams fall. Its textured look and very soft, velvety feel make it perfect for the season's cooler weather. Corduroy is super comfy, warm, stylish, and an easy go-to for every autumn wardrobe.

Why They Work for Fall:

The ribbing in corduroy adds a little dimension, just a little interest to an outfit, and that last layer of warmth.

Corduroy pants add much-needed seasonal color to the rich hues of fall: mustard, rust, and olive green. They are versatile and can be worn from a casual flannel shirt to a sophisticated silk blouse.

Style Tip: Pair your corduroy pants with ankle boots, a chunky knit sweater, and wa-la for a cozy, stylish fall look. Alternatively, wear them with a button-down shirt and loafers for a more refined appearance.

Joggers (with a Luxe Twist)

Joggers aren't just for lounging anymore after work, and Su. Stylish joggers from silk, satin, or soft knits offer comfort and style. They are perfect for when you want to feel comfortable while still looking put together.

Why They Work for Fall:

Joggers made from premium fabrics can easily transition from casual daywear to an evening out, depending on how you style them.
They offer a relaxed fit perfect for layering with oversized sweaters or fitted turtlenecks.
Available in neutral tones or subtle patterns, they offer a great balance between casual and chic.

Style Tip: Wear luxe joggers with sneakers and a leather jacket for an elevated casual look. For a more stylish outfit, wear heeled ankle boots and add a fitted blazer.

Cropped Pants

Cropped pants are another fall favorite. Their shorter length lets you wear stylish footwear like ankle boots, loafers, or chunky sneakers. Cropped pants can be dressy or casual, making them an easy addition to your fall wardrobe.

Why They Work for Fall:

Cropped pants in heavier fabrics like wool or tweed are ideal for cooler weather while offering a modern silhouette.
They pair perfectly with ankle boots, allowing you to showcase your footwear while keeping warm.

You can wear cropped pants both on weekends and even at the office.

Style Tip: Pair team-cropped pants with a fitted turtleneck and an oversized coat. Complement this modern silhouette with loafers or ankle boots.
