What are "flares"?
Flares are a type of pants that were popular in the 1960s and 1970s and have experienced a resurgence in recent years. Flares are characterized by their wide leg, which flares out from the knee or mid-calf, and their fitted waist. They can be made from a variety of materials, including denim, corduroy, and velvet, and may feature embellishments like embroidery or patchwork. Flares are often associated with a bohemian or hippie style and are typically worn with platform shoes or boots. They can be dressed up or down, making them a versatile addition to any wardrobe.
