Today's pants come in many styles, and it's sometimes hard to know which one to choose. From cigarette pants to flare jeans to chinos, we take a look at how and what pants to wear to suit your body type.

What are the different cuts of women's pants?

Initially an object of revolt and feminine liberation, women's adoption of pants is explained by their comfort and versatility of use.

• Chic pants for women

Classic pants that add style to your outfit include tailored pants, pegged pants, carrot pants and the timeless chino.

Whatall these women's pants have incommonis their discreet cut and finish. With few material effects, they are best worn for specific occasions or in a professional environment.

• Women's casual pants

In the casual pants category, jeans - whether slim, skinny, flare or patchwork - have weathered trends and constantly renewed themselves. They have become a staple of women's wardrobes. More masculine pieces, such as cargo pants, are also ideal for creating a casual yet trendy look. They can be worn in more formal contexts, unlike trendy leggings and jogging pants, which are really intended for relaxed daytime or evening wear.

What type of pants to choose according to your body type?

For A-shaped figures, your bottom and waist are wider than your upper body. Theaim when choosing pants is to slim your silhouette for a harmonious look. Depending on your taste, you can choose from a range of options, from straight-cut, high-waisted bootcut pants to flare jeans. Avoid pants with pleats, pockets or bows at the waist, which will tend to round out your silhouette. As a top, you can wear tops with balloon sleeves, bare-shoulder tops that have been very much in vogue lately... anything that will enhance your bust without weighing down your look too much.

For V-shaped silhouettes, where your build and shoulders are more imposing than your waist, we're going for all the pants in your wardrobe with material effects that will structure and balance your outfit. Chino or carrot pants are your wardrobe's best friends! Choose from the flowing blouses and off-the-shouldershirts in your wardrobe to avoid adding bulk to your build.

For I-shape morphologies, like H-shape morphologies, you need to create the illusion of a marked waist or accentuate the naturally androgynous side of this type of silhouette .Choose all the women's pants in your wardrobe with wide inserts, as low-waisted trousers increase the volume of the hips. If you want to play up the androgynous look, choose tailored pants or cigarette pants from your wardrobe that are fitted rather than wide, so you don't drown in your clothes.

For H-shaped morphologies, you can emphasize the waist with low-rise skinny and slim jeans for women from your wardrobe, accessorized with a waist scarf or belt.

For X-shaped morphologies, emphasize the already marked waist with high-waisted flare jeans from your dressing room, and for shorter women opt for short jeans that leave the ankles visible.

What colors and materials for women's pants?

Depending on your hair color and skin tone, certain pant colors will stand out better. For dark, tanned skin with brown or chestnut hair, white women's pants - whether jeans, cargo pants or cigarette pants - are the best choice. This color will bring out your complexion by contrast and provide plenty of light.

For the more daring, warm colors like a beautiful emerald green, or a pretty rust will do just fine. For fair skins and blond or red hair, we prefer black and pastel colors: lavender, coral, these soft colors will revive your complexion.

For winter, choose women's pants in wool, velvet or jeans that will warm you up. Keep your wardrobe's cigarette pants and chino pants , often in cotton or synthetic materials like polyester or elastane, for summer, as they allow your skin to breathe.

What accessories can women's pants be worn with?

As women's pants now come in a variety of styles, the jewelry, handbags and other accessories you can wear depend on your morphology and taste. O-shaped women prefer small jewelry pieces and discreet accessories such as a pretty solitaire ring and a choker. For V-shaped morphologies, we opt for waist-hugging accessories like a large belt with buckle, and a large handbag. For A shapes, we accumulate large, long necklaces and long earrings.
