Flared trousers: when and how to style them

With the arrival of autumn, we have officially said goodbye to the light, floaty dresses and mini shorts that accompanied us during the summer season, making room for another colour in our wardrobes. And so, among coats, jumpers and jeans, we also have to make room for flared trousers because one thing is certain: they are the must-have of this season.

These trousers are characterised by being tighter around the thighs before “opening up” into a more or less wide flare at the bottom. They are also called bell-bottoms or flared trousers, from the English term. 

Styling them is not always particularly easy, especially because in recent years we have become accustomed to wearing skinny or cigarette trousers.

Elephant flared trousers can be paired with a crop top, a jumper of medium length or a blouse, especially when they are high-waisted trousers.

Pay attention to the length itself of the trousers, you can choose one that skims the floor or a shorter one that took pride of place among the trends of 21017.
Even in this case, however, it is best to choose the style that best suits your body shape. Let’s look at some of them together.

How to choose elephant flared trousers.

Flared trousers are ideally suited to those with a slim, slender figure precisely because these trousers create volume in the silhouette.
However, no one should have to give up the elegance and glamour of this garment. Fashion houses know this well, which is why several styles have been proposed for this season to make the garment more adaptable.

A very wide flare is recommended especially for those with a shapely thigh line or a taller stature, while a more modest flare is ideal for those with fuller curves. The bell shape helps balance the hips and creates the elongating effect produced by the flare. In this case, it is advisable to pair them with a top that also covers the hips slightly.

In short, there is nothing to fear. There is a pair of elephant flared trousers for every body shape. All you have to do is find yours. I’m suggesting two available for sale on Vestiti Firmati: Rinascimento High-Waisted Trousers and Fracomina Flared Culotte Trousers.
