Flared LeggingsFlared Leggings for a Feminine Silhouette

Q: What Are Flared Leggings?

Flared leggings , also known as flared-leg leggings, are leggings with a flared leg design. Unlike classic leggings, which fit snugly against the leg, flared leggings widen from the knee or calf, creating a feminine, elegant silhouette. The flare beautifully elongates the legs.

Q: What is the difference between flared leggings and wide-leg pants?

Flared leggings are form-fitting down to the knee and then flare out. Wide-leg pants, such as the Softline Nylon Wide-Leg Pants, on the other hand, are cut wide from the hips down and flow as wide-leg pants. Both styles visually lengthen the legs, but differ in silhouette and intended use.

Q: What sports are flared leggings best suited for?

Flared leggings are especially well-suited for yoga, Pilates, Barre, and everyday wear, as the flared cut offers plenty of freedom of movement. OACE’s seamless styles are also great for gym sessions and trips to the studio. For high-intensity workouts like strength training or HIIT, classic high-waisted leggings are often the better choice.

Flared leggings combine athletic functionality with an elegant, flared cut. The flared leg visually elongates the silhouette and adds that special something to any outfit. At OACE, you’ll find stylish women’s flared leggings in a variety of materials and cuts for workouts, yoga, everyday wear, and lounging.

Flared Leggings at a Glance: Which Style Is Right for You?

The OACE collection offers flared leggings for every occasion. The Aura Nylon Flared Leggings are the bestseller in this category: smooth nylon fabric, a V-shaped waistband in the back, and a long, flared hem for a flattering, feminine silhouette. The Aura Nylon Piped Flared Leggings complement the classic flared design with piped details along the side seams for a textured look.

If you prefer seamless styles, the Trust Seamless Flared Leggings are flared leggings that feel soft against the skin. The Trust Seamless Motion Flared Leggings also feature delicate piping details on the V-shaped back waistband and are available in regular and petite lengths. For yoga, Pilates, and relaxed days, the Softline Nylon Wide Leg Pants are ideal with their flowing fabric and wide flare. If you’re looking for a lounge look, the Lounge Flared Ribbed Pants offer a cozy alternative made from a viscose blend with ribbed details.

Nylon or Seamless: The Right Flared Leggings for Your Workout

The choice of material makes all the difference. Nylon styles like the Aura Nylon Flared Leggings and the Aura Nylon Piped Flared Leggings stand out with a slightly shiny, smooth finish and quick-drying properties. They’re especially well-suited for yoga and Pilates sessions.

Seamless styles from the Trust line stand out for their seamless construction, maximum stretch, and exceptionally soft feel. They’re ideal for your gym workouts. All flared styles feature a high-waisted cut. The Trust Seamless Flared Leggings, the Trust Seamless Motion Flared Leggings, and the Softline Wide Leg Pants are also available in regular and petite lengths, ensuring the flare starts at the right spot even for those who are shorter.

Flared Leggings and the Right Length

A common concern with flared leggings: the length. The flared hem only sits perfectly if the overall length is just right. All OACE flared styles with a petite option—namely the Trust Seamless Flared, the Trust Seamless Motion Flared Leggings, and the Softline Wide Leg Pants—are specifically proportioned so that the flare starts at the right place even for shorter women. If you’re unsure, we recommend that shorter women take a look at our Leggings Guide.
