It’s been a long time since leggings stopped being just a sports item of clothing. Specifically, this 2024 the stirrup leggings return, originally conceived as part of the Amazon uniform and which enjoyed great popularity in the 80s and 90s.

This disruptive note in its design is what has made this garment a basic accessory to complement any outfit.
Stirrup leggings are a very comfortable and functional option that are the ideal alternative to pants this spring. This garment hugs the body and provides freedom of movement and support, which, together with its great versatility, allows it to adapt to countless situations and styles.

At the latest Jacquemus spring summer show, model Vittoria Ceretti wore the stirrup leggings in an outfit with an asymmetrical mini top and very high-heeled slingback shoes. Without a doubt, this garment promises to become the latest fashion among celebrities and it-girls.
Victoria Beckham was one of the pioneers in wearing stirrup leggings in a multitude of simple and refined outfits in total black. We’ve seen her wear them with t-shirts, trench coats and, of course, heels. Here, Emilie Joseph opts for a transparent blouse with large sleeves and a belt with a large buckle to enhance her look.
Although part of the charm is in the aerodynamic and lengthening effect provided by the ankle-length cut, the strap also helps to keep them warm and prevent them from riding up during the day. Influencers have turned stirrup leggings into a powerful ally for their mid-season outfits, like the Norwegian Austèja Boving, who combines them with this black three-quarter coat.
Supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has been the latest to join the stirrup leggings trend, which she wears with an oversized milk-colored jacket to create an outfit that is a double success. On the one hand, there is the contrast between the white of the jacket and the black of the leggings and, on the other, by hiding the waist and hem with a large size, the silhouette of the legs is enhanced. As you can see, these leggings act as an effective substitute for classic cotton pants.
