Just for fun... Pantajazz?

Pantajazz is the italian name for the flared sport pants that were all the rage in the early 00s... I had a couple for running at the time. Well, I found this Vogue Italy article that states they are coming back!
It's in Italian, but it doesn't say much more than I wrote above. I am linking It for you ladies to enjoy the pictures.
In the meantime, I'll try to figure out if I like this trend or not...

Back in the day in the US they were called Yoga pants. And now they are called that or bootcut/flare leggings.
When i was actually practicing yoga i find they great for beginner and standing poses, but problematic for headstand etc because the leg would slip. I cannot imagine wearing them for Pilates. But as fashion pants, i think they have a fun fresh look.

Yeah, I just think of them as yoga pants. I never really thought to make them a fashion thing.

Like them! The slit on the side of the one pair is neat

Pantajazz! A much better name than yoga pants. I have a beloved pair of Lucy yoga pants that must be at least 15 years old that I finally replaced this year. I’m wearing a pair of my new pantajazz as I write this!

Thanks! I loved the look when it came out, and still find it very flattering.
As kkards says, not for the gym bit for dressing.
Synne, love your buys!

Such a flashback to the late ‘90s too. I remember them well. I had a pair from Morgan du Toi.

It’s funny because I bought a pair of flared workout pants a couple of years ago, just to have another option and anticipating they were about to come back in style. But because of the strong associations with the early heyday of lululemon etc, I just could not shake the feeling that I was wearing something totally dated. And that made me feel frumpy, even though the proportions were once considered so much more flattering than skinny leggings. I’ve since put a big hole right in the rear, doing a pandemic backyard fence wallsit. Since then my 15 year old has expressed interest, which I knew was a sure sign they were just about to be huge again!

The OG lulus were expensive but practical in some ways. A friend wore them to the office throughout her pregnancy, dressed up with nice shirts and footwear they passed well enough as dress pants.

Oh fun! I find them much more flattering on short me than full out baggy legs.

Okay I was gonna say these remind me of highschool and I'm not ready to see them again but then Synne made the perfect example of how someone (not me!) could wear them in a fresh and fun way!
