Shallow Post – Do We Like These Pants?

Me?

Not so much.

I remember elephant bell bottoms, and they were terrible then.

  1. The seafarer dungarees (bellbottoms) we wore as part of our enlisted uniforms along with the blue denim dungaree shirts when I first joined the Navy were great. The blue uniforms, pants and shirts they replaced them with later in 1974 were not as well liked. When I joined the Navy we were the last ones to wear the traditional Navy enlisted work uniforms. I liked the older uniforms better and they were more comfortable as well as stylish even after the damn hippies stole bellbottoms as a sign of coolness and hipness from the Navy. I haven’t really worn bellbottoms since I got out of the Navy in 1975, although I did wear brown corduroy pants with a flair in them, a nice shirt and a corduroy jacket at my wedding in 1977. Hey, it was the 70’s. My father in law wore a leisure suit with white shoes to his daughters wedding which I have never had the displeasure to ever wear. I’ll gladly wear plaid before I ever own a leisure suit, not a chance, no way in hell.

  2. I watched an episode of The Streets of San Francisco last Sunday on Decades TV with Mariette Hartley playing a lady cop opposite Michael Douglas, she was wearing very stylish bellbottom flaired pants. Of course she could make wearing anything look good, she was a very good looking woman.

  3. I had pastel plaid elephant pants when I was little. I thought they were awesome. These on Ivanka-no. I think they’d look better if you could see her heels. They are weirdly big on her.

  4. If I wore something like that to work, I’d get sent home as a safety hazard. Better hope she dosn’t try to ride a motorcycle wearing that crap, caught in the chain for sure.

  5. Please no. Those pants on any one are horrid. Drop crotch pants are worse. I had a pair of those elephant bell bottoms in ’72 and wore them with these dreadful hippy dippy tops.
    Palazzo pants, harem pants – why?????

    Hideous thought for the day – imagine the following women in elephant bell bottoms – grandma killary, Rosie O’Donuts, Amy Schumer. Michael Moore in drop crotch pants. The horror, the horror.

  6. In the ’70s, I fell down the last half of a flight of stairs because I was wearing palazzos and was moving too fast. Landed on ceramic tile flooring over concrete. Dangerous.

  7. Perfect for laying floor tile. High waisted, so no butt cleavage. Baggy legs for bending and being on all fours.
    Duluth Trading has nothing on this designer.

    Integrated knee pads would be ideal. A woman could stay on her knees all day in total comfort.

    Don’t even go there ya perverts.

  8. Not a good look. Probably hazardous with winds over 20 knots.

    I’m getting more like my Dad every day. Not wanting to bother with fashion trends, he picked out one casual set of clothes that would never go out of style, and wore it every day in his retirement. There are always exceptions, but it’s clear that the ‘rag trade’ profits from convincing as many people as possible that they can’t be seen dead in the same clothes they bought three months ago. And the veiled pedo themes in their advertising is beyond sick.

  9. My knowledge of all things fashion hovers somewhere in the high-zero range. Favorite outfit was gihugic fat assed Mike Obama sportin’ sloppy fitting shorts salvaged from a Goodwill dumpster. Visible pantie lines over a massive chicken butt was a nice touch and stomping through the White House grounds, like a pissed off storm trooper, added a touch of class. The dog was on a leash. Roles should have been reversed.

  10. Not flattering and if anything, clothes should be flattering…for any particular individual and of course particularly in a good lookin’ woman!

    She has looked a lot better, for instance the pic of her holding her child that she got CRUCIFIED for.

    BFH – Fair’s Fair on the fashion pick up…kinda ridiculous…at least to me…

  11. I had elephant bells but they were tighter on the thighs. I even had pajamas with elephant bells.
    These pants are too long and she looks like she’s going to trip over them. I’d hate to be the one doing the laundry when those come through.
