Billowing palazzo pants

[Marmaladegin]

II intend to waft with them flowing silkily around me and pair them with a cropped jumper and ballet pumps or crisp trainers.

Any light fabric, except linen. Any colour. Highish waits ideally. Hopefully £50 or less

Thoughts anyone?

Mine came from M&S a couple of years ago. I billowed and floated beautifully right up to the day that I caught the hem on my toe and dislocated it............ Crop trousers are the way forward!

I caught my toe coming downstairs and fell a looong way.

This is one of my favourite looks, but it can certainly be a tripping hazard. You must glide in a stately manner.

I got some from H&M and Arket last year.

Zara had some grey ones a few weeks ago.
I've had to shorten them as they were too long, and I'm 5'7, but they are wonderfully voluminous

Actually zara have many pairs

Of wafty trousers

Stupid phone

Mine are from M&S.

Had to get them taken up as I kept tripping on them!

I love the idea of this look. Hadn't considered the health and safety aspect 😂

Another one here who went flying after being caught up in palazzo trousers. It took over a year before I could kneel down again without agony in the knee I smashed.
Very wary now. Pity, because I love the look.

My mum thought like that. Instead she kept tripping herself over, take heed op 😆

I thought I'd recently found the perfect pair - so perfect I bought two pairs. Wore them for the first time on Saturday, tripped and badly twisted my ankle.

I’ve had a few pairs from Zara that are suitably flowy. I’ve also gone top to bottom down the stairs in them. I did it at work whilst showing a new starter around, I somehow managed to style it out and she seemed much more embarrassed about the whole situation than I did.

I keep getting Facebook adverts from a company called "Forgotten Tribes" selling hippyish and very voluminous ones.

I have two pairs 7/8th length jersey ones from Uniqlo and fancy a pair of phase 8 cropped ones in their sale but trying to justify buying more wide legged trousers

I have a pair of cropped palazzo trousers from Oasis last year. I too, trip on the longer ones!

I had an ace pair, went to Tesco, felt very floaty, then caught the edge in the trolley wheel and and as I walked it pulled the hem down and flashed my bum.
But I am very clumsy...

If you catch your toe in them and decide to prioritise not falling down over other considerations, you end up letting them pull off your bum so you are left standing in the middle of a London bus in your pants. Don’t ask me how I know this.

@tldr if you'd said 'in Tesco' instead of 'on a bus' I'd have assumed you'd seen my bum cheek...

ahcheeses I think we cross posted but it’s good to know I’m not the only person that’s happened to. I’ll never wear wide-legged trousers again...

I’d been considering some but had forgotten the tripping hazard. I had a few accidents in them last time round. Maybe long cropped ones are the way.

Gosh.

On one hand thrilled at a) help and b) how many of us are on the same style page.

On other hand terrified at potential death trap/ bum exposure...

But I am very keen on the idea of this look, so I think I might get some and take the sewing machine to them to adjust length very carefully before venturing out. I'm tallish but they do sound alarmingly dangerous

Please could someone link to these pants and / or a good look with them? I want to imagine they sound fab

I’m intrigued to see these dangerous trousers!

I found going up steps to be the most dangerous.
