Fashion flirted with harem pants for the summer but it looks like the trend is intensifying. In this striking editorial for VMAN Magazine, the baggy-bottomed trousers are swinging right into winter with heavy knitted styles for men. I’m just not sure how comfortable they could be for a woman, let alone for a man.
I do really like the overall look in the series though; oversized scarves, leather belted coats, off white, charcoal and tweed, very winter chic.
