You should also know that the term harem means loose fitting trousers that are brought in at the hem without a taper. The harem style originally caught on as a skirt and later transformed into pants. Both harem trousers and skirts are available in today's fashions.
Happy Halloween my fellow style historians! I thought this would be the perfect time to share the story of the witches hat. Have you wondered where the witches hat originated from?
I think the most intriuging fact is that this hat was born from folklore. There are stories about witches keeping organs inside of their hats and using for magical spells. Old Stories claim witches were only meant for evil and the hat was used to intensify their scary appearance. Good thing it's all fiction.
In the fifth grade I wanted a pair of harem pants and imagined myself dancing like MC Hammer. Don't judge, I was only nine years old and real life seemed to be what was playing on MTV during that time. I talked my mom into making a pair of harem pants out of bright purple paisley fabric and accessorized them with a gold chain that hung at the waist. I chose the fabric and thought they were on par with Hammer. I was so proud of those harem pants and wanted nothing more than to have a unique pair that no one else wore. Looking back, it was a moment that I will cherish forever and chuckle to myself, "what was I thinking?" The irony is that I find myself telling that story a lot lately. You know why? Harem pants are back, that's right, they are back! The modern day versions are a little different but very stylish none the less.
