Our Favourite Flares of the Moment:

Another company noticed by the message board contributors: deedeebellbottom.com, a Japanese company, with flares up to 49 cm wide.

Here at BigFlares.com, we have tried to assemble everything you might want to know about flares. From the slightest boot-legs, via everyday flares and bell-bottoms, to the most gigantic X-flares, along with flared sleeves and more obscure flares, all are covered here. So if you want to see the biggest flares in the world (and they are truly enormous), then you've come to the right place...

[floral bell-bottoms]We have charted the history of flares and bell-bottoms through recent decades and past centuries, we have devised statistics to describe how flared flares are, and have made a flare calculator so everyone can work it out! We tell you what types of flares exist, how you can make your own flares and how to refer to flares in other languages, and we provide links to the best flare-related websites in the world. We also have an active message board for our visitors to leave messages on any flare-related topic, or to pose questions for a world-wide audience:
e.g. Can flares be too big?
Are there some things you can't do in flares?
Which are the best brands?

n.b. We do not sell anything - we can lead you to shops and manufacturers, but we sell nothing ourselves. We can, however, help you make your own flares…
FREE Patterns for making your own flares are now online. Download, print, and get sewing!
