Lots of celebrities have been incorporating the tapestry look into their style and this has helped to bring it into mainstream fashion in recent years. In this blog post, we take a look at what tapestry style pants are and how you can best utilize them in your outfit choices:

What exactly is tapestry?

If you are someone that is into your art and knows a lot about different mediums and trends, then you may already be familiar with tapestry. It is in fact one of the oldest styles of woven textile there is and has been popular in Europe since the 14th century. It remains popular in the modern day and can be found in both stylish homes and public buildings.

Tapestry was sometimes used as a way to make a room look more vibrant due to the range of colors woven in, it also had a practical purpose as it helped keep rooms warm and depict patterns or scenes.

The traditional process for making tapestry was very labor intensive and could take months to complete using a loom. For the largest of pieces, several workers would sit side by side to speed up the production and could work on one piece for years at a time.

 

What are tapestry pants?

So, what are tapestry pants? These pants aren’t woven on a loom like a tapestry wall hanging but the patterns used do often pay homage to traditional hand-woven tapestry rugs and wall-hangings. You can find all kinds of prints and colorful patterns, including floral and paisley print styles, graffiti look prints, color blocked prints, paint splatters and more. Some are inspired by famous artworks to bring that extra level of luxury to your wardrobe.

They may be straight leg, flare bottom or have other interesting features such as a fringe hem. There are many different fits and styles of these pants to choose from. They come at all kinds of price points, from budget retail store to quality high-end pieces from top designers. This style suits both men and women and is an interesting, unique look.

What are some of the different ways you can style tapestry pants?

Pick out one or two colors from the print and build your outfit around them

You don’t want to detract too much from the tapestry pants by adding to many distracting colors and textures. Pick out one or two colors from the design and incorporate these in the other aspects of your outfit, including your t-shirt, shoes and even hair accessories.

Don’t add to many accessories

Let your tapestry pants do all the talking and be the focal point of the outfit. Too many pieces of jewelry, large belts or other chunky accessories can be distracting and will make your outfit look less chic overall.

Heels over platforms

If you are someone that likes to add a bit of height through your choice of footwear, then consider wearing heels rather than platform shoes. Platforms can look a little clunky when paired with busy pattern pants, but heels can be sleek and elongate your legs.

The plain tee is your friend

If you are a little unsure about what to wear with your tapestry pants, don’t be afraid to keep it simple. A plain black or white shirt is a very classic and timeless look. Drop shoulder t-shirts are ideal; you can also pick a cropped style or boxy fit. Choose whichever fit makes you feel most comfortable and confident.

You can also wear a simple plain hoodie for added warmth. In terms of footwear, sneakers are a versatile and comfortable option that will go well with this outfit choice.
