Women’s Trousers & Work Pants

Women’s trousers are the architecture of a working wardrobe. Work pants for women have to do something dresses do not: hold a crease or a drape through hours of sitting, then look intentional when you stand on a platform or in a doorway. LAV & DC cuts trousers with a relaxed tailored fit — not slouchy, not skinny, with enough rise to tuck a blouse and enough leg to finish a shoe.

This page is only pants: pleated city trousers in stone, espresso straights that suit the Espresso Wool Blazer, black and charcoal wide-legs, navy and black cigarettes, ivory for light, sand linen for heat. Skirts live with Workwear and Business Casual. Matching the jacket is optional; sharing a color family is enough.

Choose by week, not by trend. If your days are desk-heavy, crepe and stretch twill recover. If your dress code has loosened, linen and a wide leg will look more current than a tight ankle. If you walk, watch the hem — we cut most styles long; a tailor can shorten, and a too-short trouser cannot be talked into elegance.

The Stone Pleated Trouser is the new-in workhorse: stone, soft pleat, pairs with nearly every top we make. The espresso straight is the capsule pair — the one that becomes a suit with the house blazer. Black wide-leg is the evening and the statement. Navy cigarette is the quiet uniform. You do not need all of them. You need the one that matches how you sit and how you move.

When you add a trouser, add it against a jacket and a shoe you already own. If it only works with a new heel, it is not a work pant; it is a project. Our trousers are meant to go into rotation on a Monday morning without a meeting with yourself in the mirror.
