Pants Guideline
At CO, we believe in the power of a beautifully cut trouser.
It captures something essential in a woman, a balance of strength and sensuality, of masculine ease and feminine precision. It’s the woman in the boardroom, the woman in motion, the woman entirely in control. There is nothing quite like a trouser that fits perfectly. When it does, it transforms how you stand, how you move, how you feel. It gives you presence. And yet, finding that perfect fit is rarely simple especially without trying it on. It can feel like a leap of faith.
So, we created a guide.
A clear, thoughtful way to help you navigate our world of trousers and find the right fit for your body and your life. At CO, we design trousers across a wide spectrum; from oversized and relaxed to sharply tailored, from pleated classics to modern silhouettes, from everyday essentials to evening tuxedo styles. Each one is designed with intention. We also believe in versatility: a trouser should move with you. Worn with heels, it becomes elevated. With sneakers, it feels modern and effortless. With loafers, it returns to something timeless.
Because fit is everything, we’ve broken this guide down by silhouette to help you find what works best for you.
A foundational trouser defined by a clean straight line and a tailored finish. Cut with a refined rise and a smooth waist, it falls long through the leg with a controlled drape that reads polished, never rigid. Discreet pocketing and a quiet crease keep the profile sharp, while the proportion lengthens the frame. Worn with crisp shirting or pared back knits, it is the piece that makes everything else feel considered.
A disciplined take on volume, shaped by precise front pleats and a controlled drape. Something so wonderfully nonchalant about the men’s pleated pant. The waist sits clean and composed, opening into measured ease through the hip before falling into a long, quiet line. Rendered in crepe for fluidity or structured cotton and viscose linen for a firmer hand, the silhouette holds its shape while still moving with the body. Belted styles add definition at the waist, while the pleat work brings depth to even the simplest look. Designed to read polished from day into evening, with softness that remains exact.
A shortened proportion designed to feel sharp and deliberate. Cropped silhouettes sit smooth through the waist and hips, finishing just above the ankle for a clean break that draws the eye to the shoe. Whether cut straight or softly relaxed, the line stays crisp through considered tailoring and quiet detail. An easy alternative to full length trousers, offering everyday structure with a modern edge. We love this one with a great loafer or a heel.
Function, distilled. Utility pants are defined by purposeful pocketing, subtle hardware, and adjustable elements, balanced by clean lines and controlled volume. The fit is relaxed but composed, designed for movement while maintaining a polished silhouette. Drawstrings, elasticated waists, and cargo inspired details are rendered with restraint, bringing quiet character to the wardrobe without excess. A modern counterpoint to tailoring that pairs effortlessly with compact knits, crisp tees, and sharp outerwear.
A long silhouette with ease and presence. Wide leg pants skim from a clean waist into fluid volume, designed to lengthen the frame and move with air and intention. Minimal detailing keeps the focus on proportion, with subtle structure through the waist and hip so the shape reads polished, never oversized. A modern foundation that elevates the simplest top and holds its own into evening. A great option for evening meets comfort.
Pull up pants are defined by a clean elasticated waist and a relaxed line through the leg, designed to feel effortless while remaining polished. The silhouette falls long and straight with a quiet drape, refined in elevated fabrications like fine cashmere and fluid silk. Minimal detailing keeps the focus on hand feel and proportion, making them a natural foundation for travel, off duty dressing, and evenings that call for comfort without compromise.
Denim, refined through proportion and intention. CO jeans are designed with a considered high rise and a clean line through the leg, balancing structure with ease. Patch pocket styles add a measured utilitarian note, while classic five pocket silhouettes keep the profile streamlined and timeless. Finished in clean washes that pair effortlessly with tailoring, denim becomes a daily foundation that reads polished, never casual.
