Mindy Kaling Just Made 2022's Biggest Trend Feel New Again—Here's How

Much has been said about the flowy, wide-leg trouser trend. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, they're by far the most popular item of 2022—a movement that will no doubt continue throughout fall and winter. Right now, I'm calling your attention to Mindy Kaling's newest trouser outfit because I think it's such a fresh, unique way to style the trend and stands out in a sea of slouchy pants.
Attending an event for Edward Enninful's new memoir, Kaling wore vibrant green trousers and upped the intensity by styling them with an equally vivid chartreuse top—a lemon-lime delight. Are you taking notes yet? Scroll down to see her fantastic new outfit, and shop for similar pieces.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern in 2011—back when the site only published a single story per day. (We have since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC and lives in Los Angeles. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she is now the Associate Director of Fashion News. From the Oscars to the Met Gala, she leads the site's entire red carpet coverage strategy. She specializes in celebrity and fashion news but also enjoys writing travel features and runway reports. She frequently contributes to WWW's social accounts and has a sizable following on her personal TikTok.
