Trend Report: Flared Pants
Flared pants were on the Fall 2010 runways of Prada, Balmain, Rochas, and Chloe. A flare is a break from the tight skinny jeans that have been popular for the past few seasons. I am, however, a fan of both. Flared pants first became popular in the 70's and since then have gone in and out of style. Some people say that a flared style is more comfortable than skinny jeans, I don't really notice the difference too much though. Derek Lam said, "...they make legs look like they go on forever", which is always a plus.
