    What are peoples opinions on harem pants?

    what can you wear them with. Or should they even be worn.

    Mina UK did a fabulous version of them but I can't find a picture. I think it depends on your body shape as to whether you can pull them off or not.

    Maybe some are okay on modeltype proportions, but otherwise only acceptable if you live in a bottle and can grant wishes on demand.

    saw a girl with these on today - horrendous looking


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,643 ✭✭✭R.D. aka MR.D


    you have to be super skinny and defintly wear them with heals.

    also i think only black or grey or other darks colours are good.

    they are definitly not for a causual look at all.

    i think they're nice but i'd never pull them off with my figure!!

    Hidious!!

    On any and every body shape!! Sometimes the people 'in charge' of the fashions need a good slap!!

    All the *knemos will be wearing them.

    (*knemo...that weird horrendous mix of knackers and emos wearing leggings, neon short vest tops, emo hairstyles etc,)

    I love them!! think they are the comfiest things ever!! got them on hols in france years ago and have been wearing them ever since, mainly abroad though, I used to get slagged too much in the past wearing them here!! I have a lovely dark navy/grey pair that I got in topshop last summer, I wore the other day with these silver gladiator sandles and a white fitted tank top and silver bangles and I got loads of complimemts!! My bf hates them though!! Here are the sandels I wear them with

    Nooooooo

    I think they are hideous and give every wearer a gigantic ass....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,331 ✭✭✭✭bronte


    I did buy a black pair, but I just can't shake the feeling that I'm wearing a nappy! :pac: :D

    As a matter or interest what do you wear them with? I can't think of anything that'd go well with them...

    I actually had an indian type kaftan(could also be worn as a dress) that I wore over them (so the baggy arse part was covered) It's the only thing I could think of that would look half-decent.
    Went well enough together, but I've only worn them a couple of times.

    I really like them! I prefer the silk type or ankle length ones though, as opposed to jersey knee length ones. I'd team them with super heels and a patterned tank top.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,383 ✭✭✭emeraldstar


    Honestly I think they're horrendous :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 62 ✭✭rosepetal

    Worn with the right thing I think they look quite well.

    Think that they suit tall women better though; you need long legs to carry them off IMO.
