Harem pants,
dropped crotch pants, hammer pants-- whatever you want to call them, they've all been popping up on the runways for the past couple of seasons.
YSL showed them for Fall '08 and dozens of designers including
Proenza Schouler and
PHI showed them for Spring '09. It seems like the silhouette in fashion is finally changing-- baggy boyfriend jeans are now okay for the fashion-forward girl, so why shouldn't enormous comfy pants be? They're a great alternative to those skintight jeans you've been stuffing yourself into, especially post holiday! You can rock a one piece like
Mrs. Tom Cruise or pair them with a sleek little jacket and some heels and you're good to go, right? What do you think? Totally rad and
fashion-forward, or do these need to be
left in the early 90s with
MC Hammer?
