Palazzo pants for women first became a popular trend in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The style was reminiscent of the wide-legged cuffed pants worn by some women fond of avant-garde fashions in the 1930s and 1940s, particularly actresses such as Katharine Hepburn, Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich.

Capri Pant, the name of the pants is derived from the Italian isle of Capri, where they rose to popularity in the late 1950s and early '60s. The actress Audrey Hepburn was among the first movie stars who wore Capris, and the pants quickly became synonymous with her classic style. The French actress Brigitte Bardot notoriously wore Capri pants at a time when trousers were still a new thing for women. Marilyn Monroe always travelled with Capris.

Most of the patterns that have been created are still on site, and the collections from the classic cigar pant to wide leg pant always available - if not in store they can be ordered.so if you have a favourite we can special order in a fabric or colour that you can choose.

The Cigar Pant have been a wardrobe staple since 2003 for many of our loyal customers. The need for a slim pant that is comfortable and sassy in the same breath was born in the 1950’s. Day into evening a the Cigar Pant is the best, it is not a legging although has no side seams which we feel makes the pant work really beautifully.
