The undisputed trend of the current season - ankle-length pants. This model also has another name - trousers 7/8, since they are shorter than standard ones by exactly 1/8 length. The main feature of these trousers lies in the fact that in them any girl or woman will be able to feel fashionable, stylish and attractive.
Features
When choosing shortened pants, it is important to pay attention to the depth of their landing, it should be exactly along the waist line. When fitting narrow trousers ankle-deep, pay attention to whether they are not too tight hips, especially in the groin area. Also, do not forget that the ankle-length pants should end at the thinnest part of the leg, and not in the widest part of it.
When choosing the material from which the pants are sewn ankle-deep, it must be remembered that the stretch fabric with a high content of elastane is quite pleasant to be felt on the body, but in reality it is quite inconvenient to wear such pants, they will bulge out all the irregularities of the figure, as well as highlight underwear.
For trousers 7/8, it is better to choose a fabric of medium density with a low content of elastane: pants of such material perfectly hold the shape, do not crumple and do not stretch out on the knees.
Who is suitable?
Straight ankle trousers with arrows and small cuffs fit only slender young ladies. Pants of 7/8 straight cut, dark monochromatic colors will help to create an image of a successful and confident business woman.
