Flares --- the only trousers a
hippy will ever wear. the only trousers for trendies and hippies in the '70s, but went out of style except for hippies who still wear them, and believe they will eventually come back in
fashion. This is like the Second Coming for hippies. Flares eventually got even wider and became LOONS, before disappearing from the
real world.
FLARES were often converted from normal jeans by adding pieces of old curtains until they looked like jeans with inverted lampshades attached.
"like man, flares will come back one
day"
"look at the 70's
throwback - flared trousers, flared
shirt, flared hair and flared head."
