The Brooklyn trouser really is the must-have of the Empire State of Fauve collection: a wide cut, with a slightly high waist and a fitted waistband for style. Its invisible side zip leaves the front of the trousers free for its set of stitched pleats. Its belt loops allow you to wear a belt, and its double back darts with fake patch pockets ensure a flattering fit and a marked waist without constricting the silhouette. As beautiful with trainers for an urban look as with stilettos for the evening, the beautiful Brooklyn will be a must-have in your wardrobe.
