@_jessicaskyeJessica Skye adds a one-shoulder black top, a pair of flip-flops and a raffia bag to her linen trousers to complete this perfect summer look.
This trend has been regularly spotted on influencers as well. Studio Arva owner Abi Omole, previously featured on Best Wardrobes in Britain, pairs her cream trousers with a peach vest and a pistachio cardi. Lorna of Symphony of Silk styles a padded vest with white linen trousers, a Prada bag and Converse shoes, and Jessica Skye has opts for a one-shoulder vest with linen trousers, sandals and a beach-ready raffia bag.
Meanwhile, in the Who What Wear office, we have a few particular styles that have become our tried-and-tested favourites. Editor-in-chief Hannah Almassi swears by Reformation's Mason pants, Emily Dawes rates multiple M&S pairs, and social media editor Joy Ejaria has found the perfect fit at Uniqlo.

H&M’s linen trousers are a great find, plus they go up to a size 28 in this style.

Abercrombie's linen pants have been notching up the 4- and 5-star reviews. They come in short, regular and long lengths, plus they have an elasticated waistband at the back for an even more versatile fit.
These come in multiple colourways and matching items, and the fit has been praised by numerous editors in the team.
COS's trousers are legendary, so it goes without saying that their summer versions are excellent.
Reiss's linen tailoring is some of the smartest out there on the high street, and it's not hanging around for long…
