Take a look at how African women are rocking ankara palazzo trousers with tops. The palazzo pant has come to stay and not going out of fashion any time soon. And many African women are embracing this very comfortable pants that are a diversion from the skinny and very tight ones.
While the ankara chiffon fabric is a more suitable choice to make the palazzo trouser because of it’s wide and flowy nature, a lot of women have achieved amazing results with the traditional ankara African print fabric as can been see from photos of the various women rocking the ankara palazzo pants with different kinds of blouses.

Also, palazzo trousers above the knee are not so flatter. Anything from a three-quarter to floor sweeping length is desired and the most stylish option to go for.
