HAREM PANT IDEAL? What's up with that? While on outings, I sit in many public spaces watching passers by and literally pensively await pants dropping below the knees of any or all the hip waddlers drifting by. I say "hip waddlers" for lack of a better word or description for the guys... usually males, strut waddling as they attempt to keep the waistline of their pants at their hips. The waistline is designed to be worn AT THE WAIST, and as such creates a loose fit that slips down from the rounder portion... the buttocks, of the wearer's profile. Drop pants worn by those with more girth in and above the waistline have an increased chance of losing their trousers as there is nothing to catch the pant waist... no natural indentation along the body length. A belt is meant to cinch a garment at the waist as an item of decor of simply one of necessity. Walking is encumbered for anyone... male or female, large or small, with pants hopefully cinched around their buttocks or thighs; and then there is the attempt at making a dash for whatever would them standing on a corner. Word has it that the style simulates fashion found in prison. Where are the stripes or that flashy catchy orange... or are they changed out for general public interest and to increase sales opportunity? They don't want to look like prison, but they embrace the style? A runner up on that style should be the harem pant... designed to drop low at the crotch for that demure man or woman not aiming at flashing their goods on the street. They fit at the waistline and can be presented in any red carpet walk at any level of attire from formal... sequined chiffon or lace, or cashmere knit. Men's suit fabric complete with suit jacket or Hollywood Awards night garb or a minimal cotton knit yoga class outfit, harem pants fit your lifestyle and have been STYLE since the 1700's. Picture the scene:

HOLLYWOOD AWARDS NIGHT

BILLY PORTER setting the scene and stanging envy ... especially of the women he's bold enough to front off and the designers who, "Never thought of that!'... sashaying along the carpet in a high collar top or simple jacket and harem pant made of beaded or sequined fabric and a stylized harem outfit . With a personalized selection of the feature fabric aimed at dazzling the on lookers and hypnotizing the envious with jaw dropping squeals, the harem pant of "low crotch pant" ... an original style for men OR women would have any red carpet or common folk hanging their pants with preferred style.

The HAREM PANT or "low crotch pant" Originally worn in the Far East... Turkey and North Africa... Mediterranean nations, and usually worn by men as an article of clothing for comfort and lounging; normally made of cotton or cotton linen to meet the excessive activity in extreme heat. They were later introduced in the European fashion world promoted as a form of women's split dress wear with fitted ankles along with the palazzo... a more straight legged split dress; and the gaucho... a shorter form of the palazzo. The gaucho stemmed from Latin nations in the 1920's brought about first in the American Southwest. They were all intended to present a loose and comfortable garment that allowed for flexibility in the new activities challenging women such as bike riding and other sports. The split leg pant stole the scene and were worn by women of every stature for lounging and some stylized as formal wear.

Choose a cut... choose a fabric and be ready to amaze... not freak, onlookers!
