Corduroypants

The 1970s trend that was absolutely everywhere this Summer doesn't appear to be going anywhere soon, especially if the big name designers' new collections are anything to go by. This pair of Ranya Corduroy Trousers from By Malene Birger take the trend firmly into the Autumn/Winter season.

The use of a red wine shade of corduroy packs an instant retro punch, while flared wide-legs that kick from the hip create an instant 70s silhouette. The high waistline and fitted hips ensure these are unmistakeable in their inspiration.

The perfect pair of capri pants can be all you need to create an effortless pin up inspired look, but they're often hard to track down on the high street. These classically styled Pin Up Jeans by Cooperative are now available at Urban Outfitters, offering an unmistakeably fifties inspired look.

The use of denim is unusual but effective, with a light pastel blue shade tying in with the pin up aesthetic. With a high waistline and matelot buttons at the hip, the detailing is minimal enough to create a figure hugging pair that you can wear regularly.
