La Redoute take harem pants to new levels of fugliness
You don’t have to tell us: we know. We know there’s very little on the subject of harem pants that hasn’t already been said by us, but we’re going to repeat the message one more time, just for the benefit of La Redoute, who are becoming repeat offenders on this subject.
La Redoute, we just want you to know that the images seen above? Are NOT OK. We repeat: NOT OK. What you’ve essentially done here is taken a pair of ordinary khakis, and a pair of ordinary camouflage pants, and committed a “drop-crotch” crime so terrible it hardly bears looking at. One last time, La Redoute: IT’S NOT OK.
Now, we don’t want to have to speak to you about this again, understand?

YIKES! Where do you find this ultra hideous items on your site!
I have never seen such horrifying articles of clothing on any site– this takes some deep intense investigation..props to you!
Camo is never okay. NEVER.
I’ll forgive camo if you’re in the military. And on duty.
Drop crotch, however, no excuse. I don’t care HOW big your maxi pad is. NO.
These must have been some kind of joke, that
accidentally went into production. I can’t imagine that La Redoute will make much of a profit on these serious fashion offenders. I definitely hope they don’t – that would mean that there were lots of crazy women waddling about it these ‘creations’
I’m just thankful that I’ve never actually seen anyone wearing pants like these. Which makes me wonder…does anyone buy them? Why are they sold if no one buys them?
uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurgh.
that is all
Okay, please help me make my mind stop working. What if the people who made the really high waisted pants from a few days ago meet up with these draggy pants people and combine the two “looks?” Can you see it? Could a family of four use it for shelter? Help me, please. I am fugly-ed out.
Kathy, you may jest, but that could totally happen. And yes, if it did, I think Mischa Barton/Chloe Sevigny/Sienna Miller would be amongst the early adopters for sure.
Nicole raises a very good point, though: WHO IS ACTUALLY BUYING THESE? I mean, La Redoute keep on churning them out season after season, which seems to suggest they are selling. But to who?
Yuck
