Harem pants

March 7th 2009 00:45
Harem pants are not for everyone, and if you get the wrong pair they can almost look like parachute pants (think MC Hammer) - but the right pair will make you look funky and well ahead of the fashion mainstream. Because they have an unusual silhouette, you'll want to keep the colour as simple as possible - basic grey or black always looks best.

The main features of this style are the dropped crotch with a cinching in of the bottom hem, either at the ankle or just below the knees. Here is an example of how they should NOT look:

If you're in Australia or New Zealand, you'll find excellent black cotton pairs in Supre for less than $30. They're ideal for long flights or road trips - they're so comfortable that you can even do yoga in them. Here are some catwalk examples, for your style inspiration.

I think Naomi Campbell would look good in just about anything. All those other models look good too - the tall and slim (and even the small and slim) have the advantage when it comes to fashion. But the last model's outfit looks kind of weird.

I actually like the last one (is that Kate Moss?), I like the ones with the true dropped crotch (the second pic is of course a bit xtreme). The main picture is also a cool conservative look for office.
