Women's Plus Size Oh So Soft Pull On Stretchy Bell Bottom Flare Pants | Small to 5X

Frequently Asked Questions

What are bell bottoms, and how do they differ from regular flare jeans?  
Bell bottoms, also called bell bottom pants or flare pants women styles, are a type of pant that fits snugly through the thigh and dramatically widens from the knee down, creating a distinctive “bell” shape. While all bell bottoms are a type of flare jean, not all flare jeans have the exaggerated 1970s-inspired silhouette. Our version offers a modern take on classic 70s bell bottoms with a comfortable stretch fabric and high-waist design.

Are these considered low rise flare jeans?  
No. These are high-rise bell bottoms, designed with a wide elastic waistband that sits at or above the natural waist. This provides gentle tummy control and a more flattering, supportive fit, unlike low rise flare jeans, which sit below the waist and offer less coverage.

Can I wear these as 70s pants for a retro look?  
Absolutely. With their authentic bell bottom silhouette and flowing leg, these pants capture the essence of 70s bell bottoms while incorporating modern comfort features like stretch fabric and a pull-on waist. Pair them with platform shoes or a tucked-in blouse to complete your vintage-inspired outfit.

Do you offer plus size bell bottoms?  
Yes. Our bell bottoms are available in inclusive sizing from Small to 5X, making them some of the most accessible plus size bell bottoms on the market. The 4-way stretch fabric and high-rise waist ensure a smooth, confident fit for all body types.

Are these black bell bottoms suitable for work or formal settings?  
Yes, especially in solid colors like black. The tailored flare and clean lines give these bell bottom leggings a polished appearance that works well in business casual environments when paired with a blouse, blazer, or structured top.

How do bell bottom leggings differ from traditional jeans?  
Unlike denim bell bottoms, our bell bottom leggings are made from a soft polyester-spandex blend that feels more like yoga pants, offering flexibility, breathability, and ease of movement. They’re ideal for those who love the style of flare jeans but prefer the comfort of athletic-inspired fabric.

Can I wear these flare pants women styles year-round?  
Yes. In warmer months, pair them with sandals or light tops. During cooler seasons, layer with boots, turtlenecks, or long cardigans. The medium-weight fabric adapts well to seasonal layering without overheating.

Are these true bellbottoms or just slightly flared?  
These are genuine bell bottoms with a noticeable flare starting at the knee, echoing the iconic 70s bell bottoms silhouette. The leg opening is wide enough to create movement and drama, yet balanced for everyday wear, not overly theatrical.

How should I care for my bell bottom pants?  
Machine wash cold with like colors and tumble dry on low. For extended longevity, lay flat to dry. The fabric resists shrinking and fading, so your bell bottoms will maintain their shape and color through repeated wear.

Do these have zippers or buttons?  
No. These are pull-on bell bottoms with a wide, flexible waistband, no zippers, buttons, or hardware. This makes them incredibly easy to wear and ideal for all-day comfort, travel, or sensitive skin.

Why choose bell bottoms over straight-leg pants?  
Bell bottoms elongate the legs, balance wider hips, and add a touch of retro flair to any outfit. Their unique shape stands out in a sea of basic leggings or skinny jeans, offering both style and confidence-boosting proportions.

Are these considered womens bell bottoms or unisex?  
These are specifically designed as womens bell bottoms, with a contoured fit through the hips and thighs, a high-rise waist for tummy support, and a flare that complements feminine curves.

Can I find these in other colors besides black?  
While black bell bottoms are a staple, we also offer seasonal colors and prints. Check our current collection for additional options that match your personal style.

Will the flare make me look shorter?  
Not at all. When styled with a fitted top and proper footwear (like heels or pointed-toe flats), bell bottoms actually create a lengthening effect. The high-rise waist further enhances leg proportions for a taller, slimmer appearance.
