Culottes Coveting

Currently Coventing: Culottes

Culottes, gauchos, wide-leg cropped pants — are having a serious fashion moment right now. 

Alexander Wang showed a louche take on the work trouser, paired cooly with a crop top. Proenza Schouler's culotte had a '70s vibe with a high waist and military jacket counterpart—while Hermes showed a luxe, belted leather iteration styled insouciantly with a trench coat. And having just wrapped the Fall '14 shows, the culotte is proving its staying power on the runway, too.
