VITALE BARBERIS LIGHT GREY TROUSERS

A pair of bright and structured trousers

Grey flannel has always been a winter wardrobe staple; with a high waist, it takes on a more assertive look. Crafted from Vitale Barberis Canonico wool, these trousers feature a 6-centimetre waistband and a deep Italian-style pleat, and brighten up the dark tones of the striped suit and black coat.

In summary,

The trousers that soften the look. Crafted from 340 g/m² Vitale Barberis Canonico flannel, made from 100 per cent wool, they combine the warmth of a winter fabric with a light grey shade that stands out against the striped suit and black coat. Their 6-centimetre high waistband and deep Italian-style pleat create a clean, slender silhouette.

The trousers as a whole

The fabric

A Vitale Barberis Canonico flannel weighing 340 g/m², made from 100% wool, with a soft, slightly fluffy feel. It is a heavy fabric, designed for autumn and winter, which keeps you warm in cold weather and retains a crisp drape. Its light grey marl complements the dark tones of the striped suit and double-breasted coat.

The cut

A deep, outward-facing Italian-style pleat provides ease at the hips and a straight drape down to the 5 cm turn-up, which adds weight to the lower leg. A high-waisted, loose-fitting and structured silhouette, without ever feeling stiff.

The high waistband

Unusual for trousers, the 6 cm waistband sits firmly at the waist and is extended by a long tab. It structures the top of the trousers, elongates the leg and gives the silhouette an Italian-inspired look.

A few details,

Grey that lightens up the outfit

Whereas a matching pair of trousers would have emphasised the formality of the striped suit, this light grey breaks up the sombre ensemble and lends it a sense of lightness.

The softness of flannel

Lightly brushed, the flannel offers a soft feel and a matt finish that soften the sharp lines of the cut.

Adjustable tabs

Positioned on either side of the waistband, the double-button tabs allow for a precise waist adjustment and eliminate the need for a separate belt.
