A collection of photographs in celebration of the vibrant and burgeoning red-trousered communities of London and elsewhere.

From South Ken to Shoreditch, from Jermyn Street to Mare Street – these days anyone that’s anyone is wearing red trousers.
If you want your leg-coverings to let the world know that you’ve got a few quid and don’t care who knows it, or that you have some big ideas about what’s on at the ICA right now - or simply that you are completely insane (but in a mainly non-stabby way) - then you’d better get your wife or girlfriend to take those jeans and chinos down to the charity shop post-haste!
Because there’s only one type of trousers you’ll be wanting to wear, and that’s RED TROUSERS. In fact - if you can’t wear red trousers you’d be better off wearing NO TROUSERS AT ALL. That’s what I say.

Father and son
With admirable paternal pride the head of the family graciously concedes defeat in the household's daily pudding-eating competition, for the 7593rd time in a row.
That young cove simply does have the deportement of the senior man. Witness the waistband, slightly too high, and the shirt forced too firmly home at the front. The wily old sage just sticks out his belly, hangs those slacks low on the hips in a look that says 'I'm a confident, mature man and if you don't like my red trews I couldn't give a fuck'. Classic attire/attitude match.
Ha ha ha pleased as punch the pair of them.. Bravo to you and your red pantaloons!
ReplyDeleteLook, I'm convinced. I need a pair. Where can I buy red trousers?
ReplyDeleteWhat a cracking pair.
ReplyDeleteWhy are there no photos of women in red trousers? I want to join too!
