• All-over sequin embellishment sits on a velvet base, giving the fabric a depth that catches light differently depending on how you move - less flashy, more smouldering.
• Wide leg cut falls straight from the hip and sweeps to the floor with real weight, creating that long, clean silhouette that heels push into overdrive.
• The velvet backing means the sequins have a soft, slightly matte dimension rather than a flat, mirror-like finish - far more interesting in person.
• High-waisted fit sits neatly at the natural waist, making it easy to tuck in a camisole or corset top without adding bulk.
• The elastane in the composition gives a small amount of give through the waist and hips, so the fit stays put through a full night out.

These trousers do the heavy lifting in any festive outfit - pair with a simple corset top or satin cami tucked in at the waist and let the sequins take centre stage, exactly as the model wears them here. Strappy heeled mules lengthen the leg further and keep the look sleek. The wide leg shape means they work just as well with a fitted knit or a longline blazer thrown over the top for a Christmas party look that has a bit more structure. New Year's Eve, a festive work do, or Christmas Day drinks - these trousers move between occasions without needing to be restyled from scratch. Stack gold bangles at the wrist to echo the warmth of the sequin flash, and keep the rest of the jewellery minimal so nothing competes with the trousers themselves.
