High waists are officially "IN" and gone are the days of crack baring low-rise pants. Pros: waist defining! no more plumber crack! no more muffin tops! Cons: High-waist pants can make mid-sections appear fluffier and hips look wider.
A. High-waisted pants are great on ladies with flat tummies, long torsos and hourglass shapes. Wear then with fitted tops, tucked in preferably.
