House of Pure Eco

Why harem pants work in Indian weather

The label is best known for its Aladdin harem pants — a low-crotch, softly draped cut that moves with you instead of against you. They are airy through the hip and thigh, sit gently at the waist, and layer under kurtas, oversized tees or crop tops. Through long humid months, working from home, travelling or on a yoga mat, they do what stiff denim cannot.

What to buy

• Aladdin Low Crotch Harem Pants — INR 999, in white, sage grey, black, maroon and ivory. White is the versatile neutral, black the everyday workhorse, sage grey the muted option.
• Bohemian Jogger Pants — INR 999 in sage grey, black and ivory, for days you want a more tapered leg than the harem cut gives you.
• Yippy Jogger Pants — INR 999, the softer everyday alternative.
• Eco Lounge Pants — INR 899, the cheapest way into the label.
• Co-ord sets — Ivory Renewed Cotton, Ocean Green, Wineberry Relaxed and Classic Dark Blue at INR 1,699.
• Shirts — Half Sleeves and Full Sleeves Shirts at INR 999 to pair back with the pants.

What to look for

Volume is the whole point and also the catch. Harem pants carry a lot of fabric through the hip, so a fitted tee or shirt on top balances the line far better than another loose layer, and the drape reads shorter on smaller frames. Fabric detail sits on each product page.
