tapered trousers Explanation: I think this must be what is meant, also referred to as "Karottenhose" Seit Anfang der 80er Jahre haben sich Karottenjeans mit hohem Bund und nach unten zulaufendem und konischen Schnitt sehr verbreitet. http://deluxe-label.de/karottenjeans/ See also this previous kudoZ question: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/german_to_english/textiles_clothin... |

flared trousers Explanation: So this is what I would call them; trousers with a more exaggerated flare as (used to be?) worn in the navy were called "bell-bottoms", or "bell-bottomed trousers". I take "tapered trousers" as narrowing towards the ankle. In fact the German term appears to mean either - do you have a picture of what you actually want? |
