Harem pants? Please, no
Could this be the worst fashion trend since MC Hammer introduced the world to Parachute Pants? The streets of Barcelona are literally teeming with this fashion aberration — from the historic surrounds of the El Born area to the fancy shopping strip of the Eixample. I sense the first seeds of a spoof movie are being well and truly sewn. [photo by Alison Zavos]

Recall that in Spain the “mullet” is still popular

Harem pants worn by women can be totally hip. These have nothing to do with MC Hammer schmaltz. This is a beautiful look. Easy, non constricted and sexy.
Women wore this with a vintage jean jacket back in the day. Norma Kamali made her bones selling this fashion.

I totally agree with LD. I-l-o-v-e H-a-r-e-m p-a-n-t-s! and totally disagree with mrstick. when was the last time you were in BCN? Mullets had a come back about 5 years ago, so not popular anymore.

They’re hideous.
My roommate works in fashion and she came home wearing a pair of these. Not as gawdy as the ones in the photo, but harem pants nonetheless. To her credit she acknowledged that they were ridiculous but she was wearing them anyway.
I’d rather see girls wearing garbage bags wrapped around their legs than these things. They looked bad on MC Hammer and they look worse now.

well as they say each to thier own tastes some like harem pants
some don’t i find them great and roomy to wear because i have
loads of them and i like wearing them i dislike denim jeans but
i don’t hate them i just don’t own any i’m more of a combat trouser guy
and sometimes leather like i said each to thier own .
