You don’t realise how much you rely on your favourite jeans to build an outfit until it becomes too hot to wear them, and with the heatwave rolling on this summer, our denim has become sorely neglected over the last few weeks. The reason we always reach for jeans is their versatility, as they’re a comfy, easy to style go-to whether you’re heading out for dinner or popping to the shops.
But if you can’t bear the thought of putting on thick, heavyweight denim in this current heat (and we don’t blame you), you’ll need an alternative to wear that you can reach for just as easily – and we’ve found it. Marks & Spencer’s £30 Satin Drawstring Wide Leg Trousers give you just as many styling options as jeans will, but are lightweight, stylish, and much more comfortable to wear in the heat.

The trousers have a high waist which can be adjusted with the drawstring to get a comfortable fit, and are made from a silky soft satin material. They have a wide leg fit, and you can pick them up in four lengths; extra short, short, regular and long, as well as sizes six to 22.
With five neutral colours to choose from, the Satin Drawstring Wide Leg Trousers are going to be a timeless buy that you can go back to every summer. Whilst the black or navy pair will pair with just about anything for any occasion, the khaki and cream pairs are great for bringing a summery feel to your outfit, and can be worn with countless different colour combinations. Meanwhile the chocolate brown pair brings a richer feel that you can wear well into autumn.
Their simple yet chic design means they’re ultra versatile, and you can easily wear the Satin Drawstring Wide Leg Trousers throughout the seasons with just a simple accessory switch. Heading on holiday? Wear them with some flip flops, a vest top and lots of layered jewellery. Need something for the office? Pair them with ballet flats or loafers, and a simple crisp white shirt or oversized knit to make them smarter. Got a Christmas party to attend? A sequin top and some metallic heels will instantly bring them into the festive spirit.
Satin trousers have been taking over as summer’s go-to wardrobe staple, and both the high street and online are full of great options. Next has slashed its Black Satin Tie Waist Wide Leg Trousers from £38 to £19, and they also come in multiple leg length options and a wide range of sizes.
Meanwhile & Other Stories Satin Pull-On Trousers are pricier at £87, but come in four chic-looking colour options and are a blend of satin and linen for a breathable, lightweight feel. Nobody’s Child, on the other hand, has dropped its new Satin Wide Leg Lyra Trousers which come in two colours for £65 – although the code FRESH20 will save you 20%.
But the M&S Satin Drawstring Wide Leg Trousers have been hailed by shoppers for their style and comfort, gaining a 4.8 star rating. One reviewer wrote: “These are a perfect fit and hang so well. Great for travelling and so comfortable.”
Another agreed: “I purchased petite/short, perfect length for my 5 feet frame. Love the fit and style. So comfortable. My alternative to jeans.”
Whilst a third said: “I wasn’t sure about satin trousers but these are another level.The weight of the fabric makes them hang beautifully which was my concern will definitely think of getting in another colour beautiful.”
The sizing of the Satin Drawstring Wide Leg Trousers was an issue for one shopper, who said: “Lovely trousers but. I have always been an 8 regular until recently now an 8 regular in any m&s trousers are about 5 inches too long and an 8 short is about 3 inches too short, what have they done.”
Another wasn’t as pleased, saying: “They’re ok but for the same price as the other type in grey they are not as good quality.”
But others absolutely loved them, writing: “These are great, so comfortable, and the best thing is they don’t crease or cling. The navy is a lovely dark shade, they look far more expensive than they cost.”
And another praised the Satin Drawstring Wide Leg Trousers as ideal for holiday, writing: “Fitted perfectly I am 5ft 2 1/2 the short leg size 8 was just right not sure when I will wear them maybe my upcoming holiday but liked them so much just had to have them nice and flowy not too wide just enough for me you can see they won’t crease so can be packed for a trip no problem..or wear them.”
