With all the hype surrounding Little Mix’s Perrie Edwards’s engagement to One Direction’s Zayn Malik in August 2013, the paparazzi at the world premiere of ‘One Direction: This Is Us’ paid very little attention to anything and anyone else.

A case in point was Leigh-Anne Pinnock’s rather refreshingly sophisticated ensemble. Little Mix’s Leigh-Anne Pinnock, known for her casual and youthful style, stepped out in an elegant all-black look adorned with gold accessories.

The then-21-year-old winner of ‘The X Factor’ 2011 chose wide-legged trousers from British label AQ/AQ (formerly Aqua by Aqua), which she paired with a matching peplum top from the same brand.

The singer kept her hair slicked back, highlighting her look with a clean face and bold red lips. We can only guess that this très chic look was inspired by her fancy night out with boyfriend Jordan Kiffin, whom she slipped out with after the premiere.

Wide-legged pants are still a favorite for updating the pantsuit look, and they’ve been staples on the runway for several seasons. While we love seeing Leigh-Anne in fresh threads, we admit that her outfit could use more pruning. Pantsuits are meant to fit phenomenally, so every line making up its handsomely tailored structure can be appreciated.

One look at Leigh-Anne’s loose crotch area and sloppy hem length, and, well, you get it. The pair looks phenomenal on the model, though. Since we are all born with varying body types, one must always be careful with what works and what doesn’t.
