Chinos For Women |
Those super cool casuals known as chinos have been the preserve of men for some years now, and of course, they are now available for women. Why should the guys corner the market for these superb items of clothing? With a great cut, they look super for any occasion, whether business meeting, casual dinner or a walk in the park. They are made from mid to heavyweight cotton, or cotton & polyester, depending on the cut and also the quality. The most popular colors are solid tan, blue, gray and black. Light tan is a firm favorite for men, but lighter blues and greens are available for ladies needing to color coordinate a little. Chinos for women are hard wearing, comfortable and really easy to care for.

The original chino pants were called khakis and developed from military clothing, where lightness and durability are important for comfort and effciency. They used to be called khakis simply because the military dyed them that color, but the name 'chinos' is a Spanish word meaning China. Of course, nowadays a huge amount of clothing is exported from China to countries all over the world. The original military cut was very straight forward, with straight legs, no cuffs and no pleats - a far cry from the styles available for civilians today! Chinos for women are very stylish and give simple impressions - simplicity, casual style or business efficiency.
Chinos for ladies can be in a variety of styles and often a far cry from the original concept. They can be purchased full length, as pedal pushers or with a low waist. The fabric also varies, ranging from almost pure cotton to blends of polyester and other material designed to improve resistance to stains and ease of care. In a work environment they look great with simple accessories and certain combinations go well together, such as a plain white or light colored shirt and Coach sneakers. The increase in the number of styles on the market has been dramatic over the few years, which reflects the growing demand for practical ladies fashions with the pocket book in mind. The different styles available for ladies include belted, buttoned, cropped (like pedal pushers), Parisien high-waisted and skinny. These pants also look fantastic in Spring and Autumn with a light sweater or cotton top.
