These are...well, ridiculous. I was looking up images for harem pants, and got stuff like what Princess Jasmine wore in Aladin, and as I'm sure you can recall, they had a crotch that was at the crotch. Then, on a website for belly dancing costumes, it was talking about not having too much material in the front so you don't get bunching problems. I just don't understand what anyone was thinking when they made these things with that much fabric there. They (especially the ones in this picture, I think) would be kind of cute if they just adjusted that area. Of course, then they'd be something else, I'm sure. Actual harem pants are cute.

I agree with the poster above. Okay. I admit, it's more like I just really miss LaRedoute!!! I'd give anything to click past the harem pants if only I could buy a nicely tailored, not too expensive wool-blend skirt along with a whole bunch of discounted camisoles, because the US mail order site is just plain gone! Sad. Me sad. You don't know what you've got till it's gone. Gwen D Fortuna San Francisco I like the harem pants… I agree with the poster above. Okay.

I'm talking about those who wear leggings (regardless of their body type) with material that has the texture of stockings, and moulds into every nook and cranny on your bottom half. Personally I'd get rid of those first.
