High-Waisted Pants in Tailored and Relaxed Cuts

A high-rise waistband sits at the narrowest part of the figure, creating definition through the middle and a longer line down the leg. It is the rise that makes a tucked-in shirt or a fitted knit look intentional rather than fussy, and it holds everything neatly in place through a busy day. Our high-waisted range spans clean straight-leg pants for an everyday silhouette and fuller wide-leg pants for a more relaxed fall. Both balance the high rise with a leg line that keeps the proportions in check.

A High Rise That Defines the Waist

The rise is what makes these so flattering. A high waistband marks the narrowest point and lengthens the leg below it. It anchors a tucked-in top and holds its place through the day without slipping. We cut the waistband to sit smoothly without digging. Tuck a fitted blouse from tops into the waistband to make the most of the definition, or layer a soft cardigan over the top for cooler days. Finish with heels to extend the leg further still.
