We saw them on Gigi: The summer pants that are putting jeans out of the game

If jeans seem too heavy for the summer heat, Gigi Hadid has chosen the ideal alternative.

 The model was photographed this week in New York wearing a simple monochrome outfit, where the spotlight was on classic-style cotton pants, light and very comfortable.

The model she chose had a front slit, a tie waist, and an ankle-length length. She paired it with sandals, a white sleeveless top, and a thin sweater in the same beige shade, creating an effortlessly elegant look.

Cotton pants are making a strong comeback this summer as a more practical alternative to jeans. They are fresh, comfortable, and easily combined with both sneakers and flip-flops or sandals.

If you're looking for a pair of pants that you'll wear all season long, choose a loose-fitting model with sides and a tie at the waist, just like Gigi Hadid.
