Spanx makes some of our favorite work pants. In fact, we tried their aptly named “Perfect Pant” and loved almost everything about it — making it one of the best black work pants for women to wear with anything and everything. To make things even more “perfect,” Spanx has recently rebranded it the “PerfectFit” collection with a few upgrades. We loved how the first iteration felt smoothing and sculpting.
“The Perfect Black Pant borrows from the trademarks Spanx is renowned for, such as a smoothing, elongating effect. But unlike its shapewear, you won’t feel constricted. The Ponte material has four-way stretch and a pull-on band that’s easy to get on. In other words, it’s a really well-made iteration of the black work pant,” writes executive editor Sally Kaplan in her review of the original collection.
With the newest version, we love that the Ponte material is still comfortable, versatile, machine-washable, and smoothing, but not compressing. Another selling point of the sleek pull-on pant is that it comes in a wide range of sizes, including petite, regular, and tall inseams in XS-3X.
“The PerfectFit Flare pants are what I reach for when I know I’m going have a long work day. I wore mine to the office and later to an after-work press event, which added up to an eleven-hour workday. But I may as well have been wearing yoga pants with how comfortable I felt in them,” writes associate style editor Gabrielle Chase. “They also pass the wrinkle test — I can roll them up in a bundle in my work bag and they still look smooth when I pull them out.”
