’70s fashion lovers rejoice! An oh-so-soft and thick ribbed fabric resembling velvet is making a huge comeback in the world of fashion. That’s right, we’re talking about corduroy! Soft, sturdy, stylish, and perfectly on-trend — corduroy could be the exact thing your wardrobe needs for a refresh.
This buttery-soft fabric can take you through all the seasons and is mostly thought of as an ideal choice for the colder months. However, there are plenty of ways to style corduroy through the hot summer months. Because of the versatility of the fabric, corduroy can help finish off a laid-back and relaxed look with a t-shirt or can be dressed up as a blazer and trousers for a more polished and structured appearance.
As you will see from the examples below, corduroy can easily be dressed up or down making it a timeless staple in anyone’s closet. Enjoy!

Corduroy Pants
We are obsessing over the ’70s vibe of corduroy pants, especially the flare legs. They’re both comfortable and stylish, which is always a huge win in the fashion world. Plus, they’re available in so many cuts and styles, making corduroy pants an easy addition to anyone’s wardrobe. Tuck in a t-shirt for a casual approach or a sweater this winter for an unstopped chic look.
Corduroy Shirt Jacket
Perhaps the easiest way to incorporate corduroy into your wardrobe — a corduroy shirt jacket. Or, rather, a shacket. These are perfect for completing your overall look on your more casual days. Plus, an oversized shacket can give you a totally ’90s vibe.
Corduroy Overall Dress
An incredibly versatile piece of clothing, the overall dress can be dressed up or down. Create an ultra-chic look by pairing them with a fitted sweater, tights, and a great pair of boots. Or opt for preppy and relaxed with a T-shirt and sneakers. Whichever look you go for, you cannot go wrong!
Corduroy Skirt
Just like a pair of pants, a corduroy skirt is a versatile piece to keep in your wardrobe. It can easily be taken from polished office attire to a fun night out with just a few tweaks. For the office, try pairing them with a button-up and blazer or tuck in the front of a sweater. If you’re looking for a more casual look try a T-shirt or even a tucked-in tank.
