 Harem Pants & Shants There are some days I spot things like these “fashionable” pants, and I pray they don’t become mainstream. It’s even worse when I read about these items being promoted under a good light, but thankfully, Divine Caroline agrees that unless you’re MC Hammer, you can get away with harem pants. Also on her list of fashion faux pas were shants. Unless I find out I have secret genie powers, I shan’t be caught dead in those… shitty pants, shocking pants, OK, fine, she says it stands for sheer pants, but every woman is free to interpret how she will.  I’ve seen several extremes (you know who you are Gaultier, Donna Karan, YSL ) of this style (ahem) of pants and nearly all are high-waisted and nipped at an ankle length with varying midriff volume—don’t the words “high-waisted,” “ankle-length,” and “midriff volume” sound lovely together? They look just as lovely together too. I was sure and certain this pants style (again, ahem) would never make it off the runway—they’ve been trying for a few years now, but then yesterday, I saw a pair at net-a-porter and another pair at Bergdorf-Goodman.
Cue ominous Jaws music here …
Still in denial, I comforted myself that only the rich and already ridiculous would be wearing them … until I saw a pair at Urban Outfitters and then another pair at H&M and the baggiest nappy-like pair at LaRedoute (pictured).
