Crafted for the modern woman, these W'Menswear Monkey Pants blend military inspiration with functional style. The pleated front and exaggerated taper enhance the silhouette, while the olive two-tone cotton/wool blend ensures both comfort and sophistication. This versatile piece pays homage to history while remaining a chic addition to any wardrobe, perfect for the creative professional seeking stylish workwear that tells a story.
From the brand: W'Menswear was founded by Lauren Yates in 2015, born out of a desire to produce high quality, heritage-inspired garments for women - with a nuanced and ever-evolving perspective on
femininity
at the intersections of fashion, workwear, military garments, and history. Originally operating out of a converting shipping container in Bangkok, the brand has grown substantially with each new collection, employing specialty and custom fabrics as well as partnering with local workshops & artisans.
The F/W '23 collection, titled "Flying in Crosswinds", pays homage in part to Margaret "Maggie" Gee, a physicist and pilot, and one of the only two Chinese-American women to fly as a Women's Airforce Service Pilot (WASP) in WWII. These styles explore the way clothes have been used to reinforce and resist different political ideologies - repurposing and reimagining military styles into functional and flattering workwear.
The W'Menswear take on the iconic Monkey Pant, featuring a pleated front, an exaggerated taper, and the usual pocket configuration. Sewn up in a handsome olive two-tone configuration, they're made from a fantastic cotton/wool blend sourced from a small independent mill in Japan, with a slightly more shaped and flattering fit that the original US military trousers.
