In the early 20th century aviatrixes and other working women often wore trousers. Frequent photographs from the 1930s of actresses Marlene Dietrich and Katharine Hepburn in trousers helped make trousers acceptable for women. During World War II, women working in factories and doing other forms of "men's work" on war service wore trousers when the work demanded it. In the post-war era, trousers became acceptable casual wear for gardening, the beach, and other leisurely pursuits.
In Britain during the Second World War, because of the rationing of clothing, many women took to wearing their husbands' civilian clothes, including their trousers, to work while their husbands were away from home serving in the armed forces. This was partly because they were seen as practical garments of work wear and partly to allow women to keep their clothing allowance for other uses. As this practice of wearing trousers became more widespread and as the men's clothing wore out, replacements were needed. By the summer of 1944, it was reported that sales of women's trousers were five times more than they had been in the previous year.
In the 1960s, André Courrèges introduced long trousers for women as a fashion item, leading to the era of the pantsuit and designer jeans and the gradual eroding of social prohibitions against girls and women wearing trousers in schools, the workplace and in fine restaurants.

Pants for every woman age
In 2011, fashion let us to wear all that can fix us perfectly. In terms of trousers let make a preview!
Skinny and straight pants
I adore it! But I can not wear if they have a low waist. As advice: forget about it! Choose skinny or straight pants with normally waist, I am sure that can match very well on your thighs.
If you have a tiny body you can wear it whenever wherever you like but don't forget to listen what your age told you!
Wide leg pants
Are formidable at every age ladies! in 2011 are the new spring summer trend! Wear it , with more trust , they can make from you, a fashion icon! if you have 20, 30, 40, 60 ...if you have a tiny body or you are a women with sculptured waist , voluptuous forms , it don't let you down!
Combine it with feminine silk, veil blouses, with cotton t-shirt, or tops, for an office suit, choose a straight tailored jacket, and high heel, for relaxed wear, can merge with a pair of flats , a shirt and a positive attitude!
So if you have your hips much prominent, wide leg pants, work's very well to adjust your shape. Higher waist and high heels are the tricks how make you look slimmer. Also, this is available for a short person to, wide leg pants with high waist and a pair of platforms make you taller, but be careful when you chose it, color is very important for your body shape.
Darlings, its our choose , to look gorgeous in it!
Puffed-waist pants
An urban-chic style that can be "molded" any figures, for this outfit can be the only advantage. Already I see a shirt matching the one with bare shoulders or puffed sleeves in a dusty pink shade for an outfit for day or "all black" for an evening. Of course, a pair of clogs or some platforms with leg straps is missing in this picture.
For this summer I will opt for fabrics like; silk, cotton, viscose, sunny colored, or with different prints , but my "favorite black" is white in this season and brown is light up in crème or beige. And another tips of this kind of pants is that can be long, short, upper the ankle, it can have midi length, it blend with, flats, high heels, platforms, pep toe, summer boots… with t-shirt, blouses shirts tops.
... immm ...I love it!!
And the funny part is can be wear by me, my mom and also my grandmother can wear it.
