Don't ask me either how I know they were called 'elephant pants'. Daughter in HS during 2002-2005. Her jeans were tight on top and really wide from the knee down.
In the 60's my mom made many dresses, shorts, pedal pushers and crop tops (remember those?) for us with the gingham checkered fabric. In every color.
