Hollywood hotties are hustling to get the latest in legwear: high-waisted pants. “They make your legs look a mile long and hold in any kind of gut you might have,” says Grey Ant designer Grant Krejecki. Forget the tapered “mom jean,” the hottest high rise has retro appeal. “It’s been a long time since a high waist was paired with a wide leg,” says the designer. “It seemed like a natural progression after the skinny [leg] and low waist.” So, should you make the switch? Krejecki thinks so. “Only people who desire to look short and fat should avoid this trend,” says the designer.
