On The Loose: New Slouchy Pant Obsession
Wednesday, November 4th, 2009
Relaxed Suiting Crop Pant from Elizabeth and James
Obsessed may be an under statement for the affinity we have for the new take on the “Harem Pant” or “Slouchy Pant”. It’s the new dress pant. When worn in a material that is a bit more dressy it can work as an alternative to a dress, or can also work as a new option to denim when worn in a casual fabric.
Versatile and comfortable, and with offerings as abundant as the dropping leaves, this is one trend almost impossible to not wear no matter what your style preference. Adored by celebrities and Stylists, this is tThe fit of this pant has been toned down to it’s “Harem Pant” counterpart making it more wearable than ever–narrow at the hip, not overly baggy through the thigh, and fitted just above or at the ankle. It is an easy fit for every body type and height.
We have a great selection at shopchantal.com & chantal., even including a jumpsuit from Twelfth Street that could be my replacement for a dress when choosing that perfect look for a Holiday party. Offered in black, this piece couldn’t be easier to accessorize with a killer heel & an abundant amount of jewelry. Slipping on a great blazer just amps up the sophistication of her S/S Jumpsuit.
Twelfth Street also shares our love for the “new baggy pant,” her Slouch Ankle Pant is a great neutral grey & can be dressed up or down. For a cozy & comfortable look, we love it paired back to Walter’s Z Z Zig Zag Knit Cardigan and a simple rib tank.
Prefer a black pair? Both Pencey & Joie have provided us with two completely different black options. I’m loving Pencey’s Drop Pant –a little more fashion forward and has the option of being cuffed!
It could possibly be the most comfortable pair of pants you’ve ever slipped into! Joie’s Sammi Pant is a bit more polished & dressy than Pencey’s version and is a great option when trying to pull of this trend at the office.
Getting dressed couldn’t be any easier with a style like this! No zippers or buttons and the ways in which to wear this trend are endless!
