Some look great, others look awful. Also, creases will stay in some pants and not others. I just go with it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crease-or-no-crease#post-1053814 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 23:00:46 +0000 Glory 1053814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>no to creases on all items for me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crease-or-no-crease#post-1053791 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 22:35:17 +0000 Deborah 1053791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Genreally my trousers do not have crease, however there are some styles of pants that just seem to cry out for it.&nbsp; Sometimes it somehow adds an element of structure to a garment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crease-or-no-crease#post-1053754 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 21:58:40 +0000 retailgirl 1053754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I, too would like to know why Angie says no to creases...I am a very classic dresser and all of my dress pants are creased. They came that way and that's the way they come back from the cleaners! But I would never crease jeans or chinos. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crease-or-no-crease#post-1051671 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 15:06:24 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1051671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone.&nbsp; It seems this one is across the board.&nbsp; Like Vix, I like&nbsp; vertical lines but can see that they may not be "in".&nbsp; As I was going through the pile, I also noticed that a number of pairs<br /> of my narrower pants have a fine seam down the front giving the<br /> impression of a crease.</p> <p>Angie, could you explain why no crease?&nbsp; I am ruminating on my style preferences and am curious if my reasoning is off.&nbsp; To my eye, the vertical line adds structure to a looser leg.&nbsp; Or perhaps it is that I see it as elongating the legline and am a bit over the top on my need to lengthen.</p> <p>Nicole, I have to admit to ironing my jeans but I've never put a crease in them.&nbsp; </p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crease-or-no-crease#post-1051639 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 14:39:14 +0000 Nicole D 1051639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't mind a crease if it comes back from the cleaners, as Dana mentioned. &nbsp;But I don't iron them in because I am afraid that they won't be straight. &nbsp;I have a nanny who used to iron creases in my jeans! &nbsp;I had to talk her down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crease-or-no-crease#post-1051632 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 14:33:52 +0000 Vix 1051632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><i>Dear Angie,&nbsp;</i></p> <p><i>You're breaking my heart. </p> <p>xoxo Kate Hepburn</i> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crease-or-no-crease#post-1051630 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 14:32:06 +0000 Dana 1051630@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd say crease the wider leg and no crease on the narrows. I send most of my pants to the cleaners, so they come back with creases...I've never really thought all that much about it. On the no crease ones, you can steam them:). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crease-or-no-crease#post-1051628 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 14:31:54 +0000 Angie 1051628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No, no, NO crease line.<b> Ever.&nbsp;</b> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crease-or-no-crease#post-1051619 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 14:27:56 +0000 Vix 1051619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Dianthus --</p> <p>I don't envy you the unpacking and sorting, but like cleaning you'll feel awesome when it's done, right?</p> <p>I'm a pro-crease "yea" vote. I wouldn't on something like palazzo pants, but love a sharp crease on my not-super-wide-leg bootcut trousers -- and even the straight leg ones. I prefer when the drycleaner puts it in but I will get out the iron and do my best.&nbsp;</p> <p>But then I'm all about those vertical lines.... ;)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crease-or-no-crease#post-1051586 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 13:47:58 +0000 Mo 1051586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Heh, for me the better question is iron at all or no iron &nbsp;The latter! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crease-or-no-crease#post-1051585 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 13:46:57 +0000 merwoman 1051585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nay for creases on anything. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crease-or-no-crease#post-1051584 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 13:45:45 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1051584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I decided to end the procrastination and do some closet management so I can up my game wardrobe-wise.&nbsp; I had three large tubs of clothes that I hadn't unpacked after the move and have sorted through them and am now ironing/steaming a small mountain.</p> <p>I am starting pants now.&nbsp; I don't iron a crease on the legs of narrow pants but still often do on wider legs.&nbsp; Is this still the norm?&nbsp; Do you iron a center crease in your wider legged pants?&nbsp; </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Yay for crease and nay for flat legs.</p> <p>I also did a bit of shopping yesterday and have been thinking about the direction I want to take with my style and will probably post a novella later.&nbsp; :)</p> </p>
