As a Nineties kid, corduroys tend to remind me of outfits I was begrudgingly forced to wear by my mother, but over the past few years I’ve noticed more and more of my favourite French tastemakers making the style look enviably chic. Paired with an oversized, slouchy jumper and boots, or a button-down shirt and ballet flats, the textured trouser looks seriously polished, and strikes the perfect balance of classic and contemporary.
