Harem Pants
If you are only going to buy one pair of pants this season, buy Harem pants. This is not my decree, but the mandate of fashion designers worldwide. They have deemed the Harems as our latest ‘it’ trousers and have unabashedly pushed the trend onto the runways. As minions of ‘la mode’, should we run out and purchase the billowy pantalets? Well, that depends on your personal style and also, if we’re honest, on how well you know your body type. The pants are very ‘now’ and could freshen your look, however I am a bit concerned, after observing that even the fiercest top model has trouble pulling off the look with convincing confidence. Nevertheless, we may as well add a touch of Aladdin to our closets while we still can, since they are much like Haley’s comet and only orbit fashion’s realm on very rare occasions. I understand that others would rather go back to the last Harem craze in the early 1990s. To the beat of classic Mc Hammer, an impromptu troop of dancers work the Harems better than the girls at NYC Fashion Week.
Just the opinion of a man, but those are fairly ugly pants… although MC Hammer may claim he started this …
Obviously these pants were popular in some Royal Galas some centuries ago. I would love to see some examples with a bit of history. I love your stories!
