Our article is not dedicated to all short pants, but to the widest ones. Let's figure out what popular women's models of ankle-length trousers are called.
Models of wide cropped trousers
Flared Capris
The ¾-length trousers are named after the island and have been around since the mid-20th century. Capri pants are shorter than 7/8, but cover the knees and are not tight.
Their material is dense, arrows are possible.
The peculiarity of the products is that they open ankles. But for some this is not the best option.
Advice. Like all cropped pants, capri pants make your legs look shorter. The problem is solved by wearing high-heeled shoes.
Culottes
These pants are similar to a culotte.
- Their width may vary from just wide to very wide.
- Length Same - from “just below the knee” to “just above the ankle”.
When choosing your model and length, you need to build on the characteristics of your figure.
For example, culottes will not decorate short girls. Have you heard the expression “woman in a teapot”? So, it will be similar.
They won’t suit those with voluminous hips either. For wide calves, a good length is ankle-length.
Chinos
These are trousers, the distinctive features of which are pleats at the waist and pockets. Another feature relates to the cut: they are close to a straight silhouette.
The products are sewn from cotton fabric.
Trousers
Bloomers are light, flowing trousers. In their shortened version, they received another name “pumpa”.
Fashionistas collect them at the bottom with a cuff or elastic band.
Bananas
The name “bananas” speaks for itself. Visually, the pants look like a banana. They have an oval silhouette that is slightly tapered at the bottom.
How to choose a model
Wide cropped trousers are suitable for all occasions - in the office, in the store, in the park, and with the children in the playroom.
When choosing a model, remember the features of your figure and the reason where to wear them.
Basic Rules
All women should know some simple rules.
- If you short legs, high waist rules.
- If you wide hips – do not wear pants with pleats from the waist, or made from bulky materials.
- The more folds and draperies on the trousers, the more concisely we select the top.
- How simpler model pants, the more intricate the blouse can be.
- Emphasizing the waist is encouraged – a belt, tucked in shirt, shortened jacket.
Important! Don't get carried away with long jackets and oversized blouses. They will be inappropriate with wide trousers. Maximum length – to mid-thigh
Colors and fabrics
Consider colors and materials according to the occasion.
- Variegated trousers will fit for vacation or weekend.
- Plain — for office.
- For work - culottes, chinos made of thick fabric in dark colors, for a walk - bananas, bloomers, capri pants - soft and cozy.
Fashion designers are experimenting with materials - their collections use corduroy and velvet, festive fabrics, but boldly combined with a bolognese jacket.
Important! Leather “bananas” turn a summer model into a completely autumn-winter one. This is another trend for the 2018/2019 season.
Variety of combinations
The current trend of “checked trousers” can also be implemented in a shortened version, high-waisted and wide-legged. They can be paired with a wool sweater and a leather jacket. Play with textures!
Any shoes will do: sneakers, loafers, stilettos. Boots and ankle boots in the color of your pants will add slenderness to your legs.
The peculiarity of all cropped pants is the open part of the leg. To avoid cutting off your legs, choose tights, socks and shoes to match - this way the legs will visually appear longer.
For fans of skinny models, wide models may seem inappropriate with other items in the wardrobe. But that's not true.
- Culottes look good with a fitted top: with a classic turtleneck made of wool and cashmere, a linen top, a men's cut shirt and vest, a simple T-shirt.
- Oversized top It’s better to choose a short one: a voluminous sweater made of wool with cashmere, a wool sweatshirt, a sailor’s T-shirt made of viscose with silk. By showing off your waist, your legs will appear longer.
- Trending Biker jackets that look amazing with these trousers.
- Try it a classic suit with a fitted jacket and a short, wide hem - the designers recommend.
Conclusion
To summarize, we note that the choice of trouser model is yours.
They can be regular length or cropped, old-fashioned classic or fun and edgy modern. In the fall of 2018, capris, breeches, bananas, and culottes were presented in the collections of fashion designers.
But let yourself determine what suits you and what doesn’t. And don't be afraid to experiment with clothes!
