Harem pants are long, baggy pants that are fitted at the ankle. They were originally known as a harem skirt and were introduced to western fashion circles in 1910 by the Parisian designer, Paul Poiret. Harem pants were inspired by Middle Eastern styles that date back much further that the early 20th century, however.
The origin of the pants go back to ancient Persia. Here, men and women wore it as part of their traditional clothing. Later, the pants became more popular in the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman Empire was an Islamic Empire that existed from 1299 to 1922.
They were popularized in the 1980s and 1990s by American rapper MC Hammer. They were inspired by harem pants, which originated in the Middle East, and were introduced to Western fashion by Paul Poiret around 1910.
Back here in Nigeria, the hausas and the Yoruba tribe love these baggy pants as it gives room around the private area and it exhibits wealth.
