The 100% cotton denim Collina Strada Gauley Ruffle Pant boasts an unusual design that fuses the traditional style of denim trousers with a large, cascading detail that might otherwise be found on a dress or a skirt.
To add further interest to the piece, the design includes a raw hem that creates extra texture on the piece. To leave the design of the dramatic, sculptural element of the pants uninterrupted, the cropped denim slacks have a back zipper closure. The use of large-scale denim ruffles are also explored in other garments from designer Collina Strada, such as the El Moro Ruffle Dress and the El Moro Ruffle Top.
A number of over-the-top denim styles are emerging across the fashion industry, challenging consumers to consider investing in jeans once more after favoring athleisure styles for so long.
