For many, white trousers are simply a no-go. The fear of spilling your coffee, or splattering a drip of red-wine is enough to deter one from gravitating towards the wardrobe staple. For others, white trousers feature heavily in the wardrobe rotation, styled with white layers in winter, or a black cami in summer.
Celebrities seem to fall into the latter party. Perhaps for having no qualms with taking frequent trips to the dry cleaners, or maybe for the fact that they forgo a morning tube or bus journey on dusty seats. Or, perhaps it’s simply due to the fact that a good pair of white trousers hosts a myriad of styling potential and are simply too good to let fear of stains stop them. Whatever the reason, we’ve seen them crop up on all of our favourite celebrities in recent weeks.
