ICYMI, wide-leg pants have gotten the Hollywood seal of approval this fall, with celebrities from Jennifer Lopez to Katie Holmes wearing them. Scarlett Johansson is the latest celebrity to co-sign this season’s cozy trend with one game-changing detail.
While in New York, The Avengers the star was spotted in wide leg trousers with a drawstring detail around the waist. As simple as it looks, the drawstring waist adds a unique stylish (and functional) touch to a trendy pant style. Johansson paired the bottoms with a long-sleeved striped shirt and comfy sneakers, creating an effortlessly cool look that’s easy to replicate.
