Best silver trousers to buy in 2024, from leather to lam

Publish date: 2024-05-21

If you’ve been toying with the ideas of silver trousers, now is the time to bite the bullet – party season might be over, but this statement look is here for the foreseeable.

Metallics are going nowhere anytime soon. In fact, for the past three seasons, this trend has dominated. Everywhere from Tom Ford and Versace to Gucci and Isabel Marant, we’ve seen models walk the runway dressed in liquid metals and glittering gold lamé or, at the very least, clutching mirrored accessories.

High-shine shades have come and gone through the decades, but never have they felt quite so bold – more is more when it comes to metallics in 2024. But if you’re not ready to embrace head-to-toe looks though, the easiest way to dip your toe into this trend (and still look like you mean business) is with a pair of silver trousers.

If you’ve been championing leather looks before now, you’ll be well accustomed to the styling of standout trousers. The simpler the pairings, the better: think white T-shirts and shirting, neutral knits and black blazers. And while these shiny trousers might be a little more dressy than your go-to jeans, you can still make them work for the daytime with the help of a low-key ballet flat.

Silver leather is having a real moment right now, with editors everywhere discovering that it’s surprisingly versatile. This high-shine fabric started on the runway but, as always, the high street has come through with more affordable alternatives – we especially love Whistles' straight-leg and Arket's kick-flare designs.

If you’re reluctant to try two bold trends in one, we’ve spotted some beautiful silver trousers made from coated canvas or denim which feel just as wearable. And for those who don’t need a day-to-night look, but simply want to shake it up from the LBD, sparkling woven iterations and anything lamé say all the same things.

This season, silver and gold are breaking out of the partywear mould. If you're looking for fresh ways to work metallics into your everyday looks, why not swap your standard leather midi or blazer for its mirrored counterpart? And even the faint-hearted can tap into this trend with just a flash of shine in the form of silver shoes or a mirrored handbag.
