Body-hugging skinny jeans are a thing of the past; flare (or wide-legged) pants are all the rage this season. In addition to being supremely comfortable, this relaxed and mature silhouette makes your gams look longer and leaner. They're also really versatile; you can swap in your LBD for these statement pants for an instantly party-ready look. Here are our top tips for styling this wardrobe must-have, inspired by the likes of Sonakshi Sinha, Gigi Hadid and Deepika Padukone:
