Flared pants were a huge trend in the 70s. These pants are skin-tight from the top but have wide drapes from the knee. Previously branded as "elephant bells" for their broad drapes, these pants have become an unforgettable fashion staple—and it's back. Today's flared pants are mostly adapted into yoga pants which makes them a comfortable piece to wear. Other versions of bell-bottoms are wide-legged pants that can be paired with heels.

Today, however, many have are wearing flared jeans which look incredibly chic when paired with 70s-inspired striped shirts and tees. Celebrities like Sophie Turner and Selena Gomez were also spotted donning this trendy piece as well.
