How to Style Flared Pants for Women the 70’s Aesthetic Way!

If you had a choice to return to an era, which period would you teleport yourself to? If you ask us, 70’s aesthetics played a pivotal role in inspiring youth and everyone to pay attention to improving their fashion statement for generations to come. One of the most hyped trends from the ’70s era that is still around today is flared pants for women who want to look timeless. We love the fact that these pants have been around all ages, especially our fave 90’s era, and Y2K aesthetic era

Who can wear Flared Pants?

It doesn’t matter what your body type is; pants with flare are for everyone. However, you may want to select the one that suits your physique perfectly. For instance, wider flared pants would look appropriate for a person with more weight on their thighs and hips. It is suggested that you wear a tailored silhouette as it would pop your curves out and give you that hourglass appeal. The key is to find the pants that fit your waist and butt till the knee area. These pants were seen on A-listers such as Gigi Hadid and Emily Ratajkowski.
