Splurge Monday’s Workwear Report: Single-Pleat Trouser

Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.

I’m going to need everyone to ignore the terrible hemming on these trousers just for a moment while we really focus on the gorgeous color. Argent is known for making fabulous suits in surprising colors (do we all remember the hot pink suit in 2020?), so I’m not surprised that they’re cranking out beautiful pants in a variety of colors.

I’ve been on a colorful streak lately, so I’d pair these with a light blue oxford shirt or a bright yellow short-sleeved sweater to really keep that up, but they would also pair nicely with neutrals like navy, black, and camel. 

The pants are $350 at Argent and come in sizes 0-14. They also come in taupe, soft pink, and maya blue.
