Rock the Flared Trousers
Yes, flares are back in fashion, and this time with a bang! They are not only stylish but also fun and relaxing. The tailoring is comfortable, roomy, and familiar. As we have known it, the 'bell bottoms' are unique in their flares compared to all other pant silhouettes.
Unlike skinny or wide-leg pants, flares are typically close-fitted from the waist to the knee before expanding around the calf. They are a fashion statement in themselves, available in various flare patterns - high-waist or low, skin-tight or loose, leather or cotton, silk or printed. Your preference for any distinctive flare style will determine whether you're in the mood for drama or subtlety!
Depending on the fit and size, they are also available with pleats or ruffles that end at the ankle - known as kick flares or puddle flares. It’s best to go for subtle flares for office wear.
The best part is that you can style flared trousers with almost anything and for any occasion - from a turtleneck tee to a denim top, formal t-shirts, corset tops, tunics, or halter-neck crop tops. They never fail to dazzle and are definitely the best example of nostalgia with a remix!
