Gypsy Style Pants? « Back to Group Discussions

[Tenk]

I have seen pants, didn't buy them, but would like to now.  They are knit of sorts, wide flowy leg, but fitted at the ankle and have a fold up (if need be) waist.  I can't remember where I saw them but if anyone is familiar with what I'm referencing please let me know :)

I've seen them too, but I have no idea what they were called. I came across them a couple years when searching for something else. Hopefully someone else will be able to help you.

I believe they are called harem pants

[rainbownurse]

wait, are we talking more MC hammer, or more belly dancer?

[Tenk]

belly dancer for sure but I swear I saw some from a trendy maker/designer for like $70 ... of course I don't want to spend that but those were the ones I saw first.

Maybe check American Apparel?

I typed in Aladdin Pants on Google, and it came up with a ton of results and sites to buy them from. They sound like they may be what you are looking for.

Also known as "gauchos" after the Brazilians who wear similar styles.

Oh, NM-- I missed the fitted at the ankle detail. Can't help but LOL when I see those... are they comfy? Seems like they'd be both bunchy and unflattering.

I'm not really sure but they look adorable on my tween daughters LOL but maybe with my giant belly they won't look so good. I do have a few pairs of gauchos that I love and I bought a pair of "fisherman" pants that I may have to resell because I just can't figure them out.

[cynthiamoon]

Well if you like gauchos then you probably have the right body type to pull them off. I am a pear-shaped lady and poofy bottoms do me no favors!!

I second fisherman pants. I have a few pairs and LOVE them. Work during pregnancy, post partum, my husband can wear them. Best $20 I've ever spent! I got them at a local store but Gypsy Rose (online and catalog store) has the same for $25 also I think.

Hmmm, I haven't figured mine out yet .. need to do that ASAP so they don't go to waste :(
