Harem Pants - An extremely brief history


According to Wikipedia,

"Harem pants are described as a baggy pant tapered at the ankle, with side flaps on the hip that are buttoned at the waist area. The popularity of the harem pant circulated in the mid-1980s with MC Hammer."[1]

So, if like me you find yourself constantly updating your wardrobe, at some point you would have found yourself looking at a pair of harem pants asking yourself when MC Hammer became a style icon??

Truth is, as scary as harem pants appear, they CAN look very chic. But be warned, this is a very tricky look to pull off! To date, I have chosen to steer clear of them but don't let that put you off. Be brave and give into the"Hammer" in you!!!
