A great pair of linen pants is a must in any minimalist’s wardrobe. Breezy, comfortable and stylish even when they’re a little creased, the right pair for you will be worn to death, trust us.
So, what makes linen ‘right’ for you? Well, it depends on your style, and where you’ll be wearing them. If you’re travelling a fair bit or looking for a pair of summer linen pants for beachgoing, pull-on styles with drawstring or elastic at the waist is the best option. For workwear, choose tailored linen pants to keep your overall outfit feeling professional.
How Do You Wear Linen Pants?
Linen goes perfectly with basics, like a relaxed cotton tee or fitted ribbed tank. Linen pants are also perfect for throwing on over your swimsuit to head up to lunch or for drinks. At the office, if a t-shirt is too casual then try going double-linen, with a loose shirt over your linen pants for a slouchy, effortless finish that still feels appropriate for meetings.

THE ICONIC
Straight Leg Linen Pants
Aere, a fashion label exclusive to The Iconic, makes excellent linen fashion. Its linen pants have been a top buy for years, and they regularly release new colourways that align with what’s trending. Still, simple black is always a great option, and we love these Straight Leg Linen Pants ($120), especially for the office.
Myer
Tiara Linen Wide Leg Pant
These poppy pink linen pants by Forever New ($99.99) are so much fun, they’ll instantly brighten up your day. We love these with a cropped tank top for your next girl’s night, and they’ll still work well at the office with a crisp shirt or white tee and blazer.
THE ICONIC
Linen Wide Leg Pants
Another great pair of linen pants by Aere, we love these in the Ginger Biscuit shade ($120) – the earth tone is really versatile, working back with loads of items you likely already have in your wardrobe. Not an earth-tones person? Stormy Blue is a gorgeous marine shade, while Clay is the sweetest pastel pink.
Glassons
Traceable Linen Wide Leg Pant
If there was a pair of linen pants made for the beach, these would be it. The wide-leg pants from Glassons ($59.99) are a viscose/linen blend, and light as air to wear. Throw them on with your bikini and an open vintage shirt, or wear with a bodysuit for casual evening drinks.
Seed Heritage
Core Linen Tie Up Pant
Another great pair of beach must-haves, these Seed Heritage ($99.95) linen pants also work well day-to-day. The paperbag-style waist feels elevated with a tee or tank, and the slightly cropped length shows off chunky sandals well. Alternatively, team these with a blazer and sneakers for a smart-casual office look.
The Undone
Ottavio Pants
Faithfull The Brand design fantastic resortwear, with a lot of linen pieces that will last in your wardrobe. We love the Ottavio Pants ($239) for their high waist and palazzo style – they look great with cropped, summery tops and either heels or sandals, depending on how dressy you want to be.
The Undone
Palma Organic Linen Pant
Looking for the perfect going-out linen pants? Look no further, because the Palma Pant ($475) by Bondi Born is flawless. The super wide leg and long length instantly adds elegance, even if you team it with your old favourite tee. For effortless chic we recommend teaming these with a silk camisole and some strappy heels.
