Drop crotch pants.....love em’? Hate em’? Don’t know how to wear em’?
Drop crotch pants (or “poo” pants as some like to call them) have hung around from summer and are here to stay. They have become slight drop, medium drop or to your ankle drop in some cases! They are not for everyone’s style, but here’s a few tricks on how to wear them....
- Avoid looking like you are in your P.J’s! If your pants are in t-shirt or casual fabric then dress them up with chiffon, rayon, knit or more tailored tops.
- Generally most people will suit them better if their bottom is covered! Go for a drop tail or scoop hem top that comes up at the front but slims your thighs and adds height with the drop at the back.
- Try them in dressy fabrics. The droppies are a great way to hide the top definition of your thigh and are super comfy, add a pair of styley boots or heels and a drape top and you are looking fab!
- Try different styles and cuts before you rule them out! Not all drop crotch styles are the same. Gusseted styles tend to have more “bulk” between your legs and feel like nappies. No seam through the crotch is a good basic drop that is a good place to start your love of droppies. Angled seams across the drop are better on those with reasonably small waists as they can add volume to stomach area.
Let’s face it..... how often is fashion comfortable? Embrace it! Wear them well and they can look amazing, but like everything if you get the wrong cut or shape for you, or don’t balance your outfit then chances are they will not end up a winner on the day!
