A well-rounded wardrobe truly begins with a solid foundation. When the temperatures plummet, and dresses feel impractical, comfortable winter trousers become essential. Versatility is crucial, as you'll want pants that transition from chilly commutes to warm offices and bustling bars or restaurants in the evening.

From tailored wool pants ideal for a professional setting to cozy lounge pants fit for a weekend outing, we've curated a selection of winter trousers for women that will keep you warm and stylish all season. Below, you'll find winter trouser outfits for different occasions and a list of the best winter pants to incorporate into your wardrobe.

Best Winter Trousers for Women 2025

Let's begin by exploring the top pant options for winter before we dive into some outfit ideas.

Straight Leg

Straight-leg pants are exceptionally versatile, offering a multitude of options in various materials and colors. The outfit options are almost endless.

This season, don't overlook leather trousers - specifically the Straight-fit leather trousers from House of Dagmar. They're the ultimate style secret, allowing you to look chic while staying warm and protected from the elements. Bring a pair of these for a night out this winter—you'll definitely turn heads at every dinner party.

When the temperature drops and stiff jeans just won't cut it, try cozy corduroys as a comfortable alternative. A pair of Corduroy straight-leg trousers can easily take the place of your everyday denim, providing warmth without sacrificing style.

Wide Leg

It's time to refresh your work pants for the season. This winter, wide-leg and loose-fitting silhouettes are essential for office attire, available in various stripes, colors, and even low-rise styles. Pair these pants with your favorite blouses, blazers, and knits during the week, then transition to the weekend by teaming them with hoodies and puffers.

For a professional look, consider the Wide-leg suit trousers from Beige Brown. If you're leaning towards a more casual choice, the Cashmere wide-leg trousers SOFI from Lisa Yang are a great pick.

Knit

Knit trousers are emerging as a stylish alternative to sweatpants and loungewear. However, due to their sleek appearance, they can be integrated into more polished outfits.

The Fine-knit ribbed trousers KAREN from Lisa Yang are made from premium cashmere, offering a minimalist look that pairs well with other knitwear, blazers, and puffer jackets. Meanwhile, the High-waist ribbed trousers PENELOPE from House of Dagmar provide a legging-like fit perfect for casual outings.

Tailored

If your workplace has a dress code, you should have a reliable pair of sleek pants, no matter the weather outside. To ensure you stay warm during your commute, opt for styles made from wool or insulated fabrics.

The Classic regular-fit trousers FAYE from Tiger of Sweden align perfectly with any business dress code. Meanwhile, the Wide suit trousers from House of Dagmar offer a more festive look, perfect for those occasions when you want to add a bit of flair.

Denim

You can't talk about the best pants for cold weather without highlighting the ultimate closet essential: jeans. The robust women's jeans are both warm and durable, making them ideal for layering. Whether you prefer slim-straight leg styles or '90s-inspired pairs, you'll stay cozy while rocking a stylish look.

If you're in the market for something classy, check out Agolde's High-rise Straight Jeans  90's Pinch. For those who favor a wide-leg fit, the Relaxed-Fit Jeans LOORNA from Tiger of Sweden could be just what you need.

Loungewear

Ultimately, the secret to achieving a great winter style lies in comfort. Fortunately, this season's trend of slouchy, stretchy, and knit loungewear is perfect for both lounging at home and stepping out. Cashmere or knit pants can elevate your travel or errand-running looks while serving as stylish layering pieces or comfy options for relaxing indoors.

We are particularly fond of loungewear pants from FTC Cashmere, especially the Straight-leg cashmere trousers and the sporty Fine knit sweatpants.

Creamy Tonal

There's an undeniable elegance to a tonal outfit. Whether you opt for shades of beige, black, grey, or even a striking vivid color, coordinating your trousers with your coat creates a chic look.

We've started this ensemble with the Wide Suit Trousers from House of Dagmar in soft pastel beige, paired with a complementary Double-breasted coat. To elevate the outfit, we've added the trendy Balaclava Hood from FTC and finished it off with stylish Suede Ankle Boots TWEED from Voile Blanche.

Mix of Textures

Cozy teddy coats are all the rage now, and they make a great match with leather trousers. In this look, we've combined the Sherpa hoodie HOLLAND by Moose Knuckles with Agolde's Leather straight trousers 90'S PINCH and the Leather Chelsea boots BETHEL from Voile Blanche for a comfortable everyday outfit that's sure to keep you warmest. Don't forget to top it off with the Ribbed-knit cashmere beanie MARTIGNY from Lisa Yang to keep your head snug, too!

Trendy Grey

Play around with lengths and layers. This simple outfit can take on a sophisticated vibe and is easily replicable with staples from your capsule wardrobe.

Start off with a pair of stylish grey Wide suit trousers from House of Dagmar, and pair them with a trendy knit like the Roundneck cable-knit pullover from FTC. Layer on the Oversize doublé coat in a complementary grey tone, and complete the ensemble with the Knit cashmere scarf PARIS from Lisa Yang, adding extra depth.

Black Classy

If you haven't yet switched to lighter-colored pieces, no need to worry. Classic black styles are timeless and always in fashion. Here's a fresh take to pull them off.

Start with the elegant suit set from Erika Cavallini, featuring Straight-leg wool trousers paired with a Tie-front wool blazer. Layer it over a Lace knit top from House of Dagmar, and bring along a Double-breasted wool coat if you need warmer outerwear.

Business Casual

And what about those business meetings we have to attend even when it's freezing outside? Well, let's assemble a look for those special occasions too!

Trousers should be undoubtedly classy, so we recommend the Classic regular-fit trousers FAYE from Tiger of Sweden. Layer on a neutral knit such as the Turtleneck cashmere sweater from FTC, and throw the Short double jacket from House of Dagmar on top. To keep all your valuables with you, get yourself a spacious tote - Hereu's Cut-out leather bag ONADA is simply the best for such cases.

Quick Outing

Need to make a quick trip to the corner shop or take your puppy for a stroll? A good outfit for these occasions is a comfy outfit.

Slip into the Loungewear cashmere trousers from FTC, and pair them with the Duno Oversize short down jacket PEGGIE, which features a stylish combination of wool tweed and puffed inserts. Complete your look with the ankle leather boots HELIA from Voile Blanche, and don't forget to accessorize with cozy essentials like the Ribbed-knit cashmere beanie MARTIGNY and the Ribbed-knit armwarmers HYDEN from Lisa Yang.
