The Maeve Marnie Taffeta Tapered Pants have caught the attention of multiple Who What Wear staffers for their affordable take on a seasonal standout.
Taffeta pants emerged as a standout fall trend during a recent team gathering at The Mark hotel's bar on Manhattan's Upper East Side. Editorial director Lauren Eggertsen arrived from Los Angeles wearing a bold pair that sparked conversation among the New York editors about how the fabric instantly elevates any look. The trend has gained traction across multiple labels, with Chan Luu, Donni, and Reformation each offering their own interpretations in various colorways.
The team discovery
Associate features editor Ana Escalante and the writer independently identified an accessible version at Anthropologie: the Maeve Marnie Taffeta Tapered Pants. The coincidence repeated when executive shopping director Bobby Schuessler later sent the same recommendation, confirming the $118 style had captured widespread interest among staff.
The Maeve design arrives in eight color options spanning light blue, lime, camel, black, ivory, blue, chocolate, and pink—the last of which is nearly sold out. Sizing extends across standard, tall, petite, and plus ranges.
The gathering marked the launch of Who What Wear's first print issue commemorating its 20th anniversary.
