Runway: Jumpsuits, skinny pants (still), wide-leg and crops: designers love their pants.
Reality: The crop (also called 7/8 length) pant -- seen here at Micheal Kors -- is one of the newer looks to take the runway, but it's certainly nothing new to women everywhere who have faithfully worn capris in warm weather for years. The softer legs -- on jumpsuits, pants and crops -- give this version of the pant wearability, as long as you keep the volume under control. A great rule is that for maximum flattery the pant should hang in a straight line from your bottom. That way it skims over thighs without clinging.
