Kendall Jenner wore comfortable wide-leg trousers on the day of the Met Gala. Shop similar ageless and universally flattering pants for spring from Amazon and Nordstrom, starting at $25.

Hers are $1,590, but I found a pair for $25.

Spring is all about being outside, whether you’re riding a bike, shopping at a farmers market, or having a picnic; I’m even sitting on a park bench as I write this story. But spending time outdoors means wearing the proper clothing. Afterall, no one wants to be bogged down by stiff, uncomfortable separates on a perfectly sunny day. So, I looked to Kendall Jenner for some seasonal fashion inspo. 

On Met Gala day, Jenner was spotted outside of The Carlyle hotel wearing a pair of what appeared to be hotel slippers. Her lightweight pull-over jacket, large Vehla sunglasses, and oversized sold-out tote from The Row almost made me glaze over the indoor shoes, while Jenner’s spring fashion expertise shone through her $1,590 The Row Dela Pants.

The breezy trousers included a full-length hemline, mid-rise waist, side pockets, and a spacious wide-leg design, reminding me of Anne Hathaway’s recently worn satin pants. Katie Holmes, Jennifer Lawrence, and Martha Stewart have also jumped on board the effortless jeans alternative, proving that this trend is here to stay.

Lillusory Wide-Leg Trousers

I’m a fan of pajama-like bottoms, and I rely on similar versions every spring and summer. How can I not when they’re lightweight and unfussy? Not to mention, they instantly elevate basic tees, white sneakers, and Birkenstock sandals, while seasonal wedges, off-the-shoulder blouses, and airy knits coordinate perfectly with the pants.

Comfortable bottoms don’t just look good on celebrities and yours truly—they flatter a wide range of body types. The secret is in the billowy silhouette, which skims the wearer instead of squeezing and restricting the body. The ageless style is also a fan-favorite no matter one's age, offering daughters, mothers, and grandmothers a top-tier wardrobe staple.

You may be saying, “That’s great, but $1,590 for pants?” I get it, and that’s why retailers like Amazon, Nordstrom, and J.Crew have made lookalike trousers more affordable. Consider the Madewell Harlow Wide-Leg Pants for an editor-tested pick, or the budget-friendly Tronjori palazzo bottoms for a style that’s more refined. J.Crew’s Carolina flare bottoms are another great find, especially since they feature a stretchy linen material.
