The Spring/Summer 2009 pant trend that has style savants dreaming of Jeannie will be stepping fashion forward into Fall. The "Harem Pant" is a wide-legged pant that billows out around the hips and thighs and tapers at the ankle, a style that is seemingly more forgiving of those typical trouble areas, but tends to be hard to pull off by those without a giraffe-like figure. The quirky trend has evolved quite a bit since its introduction during the 80s, with an array of updated designs allowing you to pull off the look without looking like MC Hammer. Choosing a style with a high waistline, and pairing the pants with sky-high heels and fitted tops are your best bet for creating a chic look.
If harem pants are not the wide-legged look for you, you can try the "Palazzo Pant" on for size. This style sits tight on the waist and flow outwards all the way down to the ankles, and can also be paired with a form-fitting top for a stylish ensemble. The versatile pant can create both relaxed or polished looks depending on the fabric and tailoring.
In either style you can channel the aesthetic of a skirt in the relaxed feel of a comfortable pant, creating an all around unique look and making wide-legged looks a pant-astic choice for fall!
