English term or phrase: a nonchalantly cuffed trouser leg
Bonjour,

dans un article de mode, il est question de pantalons d'été pour homme :

A Liberty-print shirt can be buttoned up and worn with a brooding, purple jacket for a sharp, dapper look or buttoned down if casual is the order of day. ***Work in a nonchalantly cuffed trouser leg and this summer shouldn’t be too cruel at all."***

Auriez-vous des suggestions ?

Merci d'avance :-)

Le côté jean d'homme, négligemment retroussé fait aussi son entrée. Côté coupes, si le large est omniprésent, le slim reste tendance.
