Pants were once a piece of clothing that society was wired to believe to only fit the mold of masculinity so it only belonged to men. But as the world progressed, women became more empowered, assertive, and conscious of their rights which includes fashion liberation.
Eventually, pants started making their way to luxe fashion houses that further paved the way for women to have their own fashion choices. Coco Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent were two of the first fashion houses to take it mainstream.
These days, trousers have become staples in women’s wardrobes. We normally opt for these pairs for days when for busy days because it offers more ease for movement. While fashion fluidity has now become a thing, it still holds true that pants project a powerful statement. Wearing pants help women silently assert themselves better on certain occasions.
