Harem Pants

MC Hammer made them famous in 1990, and for some reason, Justin Bieber and the entire H&M design team decided to bring them back around 2012. Drop-crotch pants create the silhouette of someone who has given up on both gravity and dignity simultaneously. Designers called them "relaxed" and "bohemian." Everyone else called them "the pants that look like you're wearing a full diaper." Paul Poiret introduced the original harem pant in 1911; he would be horrified to see what the 2010s did with his concept.
