NWT Anthropologie Elevenses Wide Leg Tie-Waist Trousers, Color Taupe, US 6 / NZ 10

Purchase Protection & Refund Policy

A beautifully cut pair of Elevenses for Anthropologie wide-leg trousers, still retaining the original Anthropologie hangtag. Dramatic without being theatrical, feminine without relying on overtly feminine detailing, and cut with enough structure to feel intentional rather than simply oversized. The fabric is a softly brushed taupe-brown melange suiting textile, with a smooth, fluid hand and enough body to hold the long column-like shape of the legs. The color sits somewhere between deep mushroom, taupe and smoky charcoal depending on the light, making it particularly easy to style with black, cream, ivory, chocolate brown, navy or burgundy. The trousers are cut with an exceptionally wide, full-length leg, falling cleanly from the waist into an almost skirt-like silhouette when standing still. Rather than using heavy pleating or obvious tailoring details, the design relies on proportion and movement, which gives them a very elegant, understated quality. The standout detail is the long self-fabric sash at the waist. It can be wrapped and tied traditionally into a soft knot or bow, or left longer and slightly asymmetric for a more relaxed, directional look. The broad waistband keeps the upper section neat and defined, creating a beautiful contrast against the generous volume below. The front is deliberately minimal, allowing the fabric and silhouette to do most of the work. From the back, the shaping remains clean and tailored, so despite the dramatic width these do not feel bulky through the hip. The fabric has that slightly brushed, refined surface typical of soft tailored trousers. For a minimalist modern look, wear them with a fitted black merino knit or fine ribbed tank, pointed black flats or kitten heels and a structured leather bag. The close-fitting top keeps the proportions controlled while allowing the extraordinary width of the trousers to become the focus. For something softer and more tonal, pair them with an ivory silk blouse or cream cashmere knit, tie the sash loosely at the side and add chocolate-brown loafers or boots. Gold jewelry would work particularly well against the grey-brown tone. They would also look excellent with a cropped blazer or very simple white shirt for a more architectural, slightly masculine styling direction.
