Given that it's being hosted in one of the most stylish cities in the world, it's no surprise that there are plenty of enviable spectator outfits at 2024's Olympic Games. But our favourite so far has to be Cindy Crawford's suitably Parisian white trouser look that expertly balances simplicity with sophistication.

Your summer capsule wardrobe doesn't have to be comprised of just skirts and dresses - there are plenty of ways to make trousers work for sunny climates. But if you're at a loss for how to style them for summer, look no further than Cindy Crawford's stellar ensemble to support team USA at the Olympics.

When stuffy, sticky weather rolls around, there's nothing worse than wasting time wrestling with your clothes to find something you actually feel comfortable and cool in. Having foolproof outfit formulas like Cindy's on hand will save a lot of time and effort, and you can pretty much guarantee being the most fashionable one in the room.

We love a lightweight trouser for all manner of summer weathers. Paris was hit with some serious rainfall over the weekend, bringing wet and humid conditions, which Cindy's look worked brilliantly for. Her tailored trousers offered just the right amount of coverage without being too heavy, so they can be relied on for overcast days and bright sunshine, thanks to the white hue that will keep you cool.

Shop Cindy's look

Although each component of Cindy Crawford's outfit is very simple, when styled together you get a beautifully minimalist feel that can take you anywhere. For slightly formal events that don't require an actual dress, it can be a challenge to know what will fit the brief and make you feel good, but we're certain this outfit recipe is exactly that.

The best part is that every piece will get endless wear throughout the year - not a week goes by without the need for a basic but stylish vest and some reliable trainers. Bright white trousers might be a little more standout, but with the right fitting pair, you'll soon want to wear them every day.

Throw on top of the best swimwear for women over 50 with some sleek flip-flops on holiday, or keep things monochromatic with a boxy white tee and some chunky sandals for a park picnic.

When in doubt, a pair of white trousers is one of the most chic pieces you can turn to, so it's worth having a couple of perfectly tailored pairs on hand. We're always on the lookout for smart alternatives to the best wedding guest dresses and you could very easily team one of these pairs with a colourful blazer, some heels, and a clutch bag - just make sure there isn't too much white in your look!
