Take away the St. Trinian’s inspired school tie whose stripes unfairly dominate this look and you have not just another example of the evolving silhouette of trousers but also a far-sighted inspiration for this next potential evolution of this women’s trend.

To date we’ve seen most of the styling of wide leg trousers have a 1970s tilt to them and rightly so: fashion is all about reinterpreting the 70s right now. This look differs, however. Wide legged the trousers may be, but their ‘Oxford bags’ cut gives them a 1920s / 1930s overtone – and that’s one of the eras that fashion is likely to reinterpret across 2012 / 2013.

He was 5 when his teacher wrote on his report card “Daniel can’t sit still.” Taking it as a compliment, he’s been on the go ever since. Having flown over 590,000 kilometres in a single year (2012), he’s done much to push the boundaries of a fashioniser, always looking to fold one extra Tom Ford suit into his set of Samsonite cases and for one extra occasion to tie a tie for. As much an editor-at-large as he is Fashionising.com’s Editor in Chief, when he's not travelling to all the fashion weeks his passports will allow him to, Daniel works on guiding this publication’s editorial and trend views. He is one of Fashionising.com’s co-founders.
