Considering that the 70s are having a major moment in fashion and that the ’60s are on deck for the Spring, it’s probably a good idea to make friends with wide leg pants. It is my personal belief that wide leg pants are magical pants and flatter any and every body, literally.
They might be a little intimidating to wear a first glance but I promise, you too can rock them. Here are a few helpful hints:
—Half the battle is getting the length of the pants right. Too long and they’ll drag and look sloppy. Too short and you’ll look like you are expecting a flood. A half-inch off the ground works best.
—Oh, and add heels. Flats and wide legs seem a bit, uh, dumpy, if you will.
—Because the pants create such volume on the bottom, go for a structured look on the top. Tuck your top in to define your waist. Or cinch your top with a belt, either way, show off your waist.
—If you want to pair a jacket wit this look, choose a short one or a style that doesn’t fall lower than your hips. Make sure the jacket is tailored to your body if it is a longer one. Too long of a jacket could throw the proportions off creating that dumpy look we talked about earlier.
