Joni Leggings | Marcella

Structured like a trouser, worn like a second skin. The Joni Leggings are cut from midweight European ponte — the same Punto di Roma fabric (77% Viscose, 18% Polyamide, 5% Elastane) woven into Marcella's most-loved pieces — and finished with a continuous strip of vegan leather piping that spirals from the back waistband down to the front hem of each leg. That single seam detail is what separates Joni from any standard black legging: it reads as edgy on a Saturday, polished enough for the conference room on a Monday. Her silhouette is a high-rise, skinny-leg trouser cut with a stretch waistband that holds its position through a full day of movement. The ponte has genuine four-way stretch, so the leg stays smooth and fitted without compression. Reviewers consistently note the trouser-like drape: the knees and ankles are relaxed rather than clinched, which balances proportion and makes the full 28-inch inseam feel elongating. Pair Joni with a structured blazer and low heels for office-to-evening wear, or wear her with a cropped knit on the weekend. Fit note: The Joni Leggings run large. Multiple verified buyers recommend sizing down one size, and those between sizes should take the smaller option. There is no compression in the ponte, so the waistband holds without pulling down rather than through elastic tension. Emily, our model, is 5'9.5" (177 cm) tall and wears size XS. The 28" inseam works for frames from 5'3" to 5'9" and can be folded under for a 7/8 cut on shorter legs. [SPLIT] • Emily is 5'9.5" (177 cm) tall, wearing size XS.
