Anne Hathaway Wore the Ageless Jeans-Alternative I Wear Like Clockwork in Summer

Katie Holmes gave it her stamp of approval.

I like to think of Anne Hathaway as Andrea Sachs’s future self. In my version, Sachs walks away from Miranda Priestly, spearheads an acting career, and changes her name—hence the creation of Hathaway. Obviously, this is just a figment of my imagination, but this alternate storyline stems from the actress’ on-point fashion game. She never misses a style beat, and that’s been exceedingly evident during The Idea of You press tour.

Jumping on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Hathaway wore a sexy rhinestone getup including a Fleur du Mal mesh bodysuit, suede Aquazzura platform pumps, and a black version of these $935 satin trousers from Des Phemmes. The jeans-alternative boasted a wide-leg, silky crepe material, and a sprinkling of gemstones.

I’m not saying I rock a pair of satin trousers as well as Hathaway, but I do rely on similar styles like clockwork this time of year. The lightweight pants offer a breezy choice for spring and summer, combatting stiff bottoms that often leave you feeling hot and sticky. Hathaway and I aren’t the only ones in agreement on loose, glossy pants, either; Jennifer Lawrence, Katie Holmes, and Martha Stewart all reach for similar trousers on the regular—and I have a feeling you will be soon, too.

Effortless silk slacks elevate simple tees and sneakers in a jiffy and pair with seasonal wedges and knit tops just as easily. The sexy yet refined pants are universally flattering, too, looking great on a wide range of body types, while feeling comfortable and unrestrictive. But don’t be surprised if both your mom and younger sister try to steal your silk bottoms; they’re ageless, serving as a foolproof wardrobe staple no matter the generation.
