What is Tapered Jeans?
1.
An attempt to create a happy medium between disco-era bell-bottoms and New-Wave spandex that failed miserably. They are usually high-waisted, full-seated, and quite narrow at the ankle (their character trait). Still sold in stores like Wal-Mart, Mervyns and Kohls and worn mostly by suburban moms who don't watch Desperate Housewives or Sex in the City.
Oh look honey, those tapered jeans show off your keds.
