High Waist Harem Pants — Drawstring & Elastic Waist

A high-rise waistband that actually stays up. Two closure options so the fit is genuinely yours. These high waist harem pants sit at the top of the hip — higher than a natural waist, creating a long-leg silhouette that flatters most body types. Available with either a drawstring or elastic-only closure depending on how you prefer your waistband to behave during movement.

Why High Waist?

Most yoga and harem pants sit at the natural waist or below. A high-rise waist changes the proportions: it elongates the leg visually, keeps the waistband securely in place through yoga, dance, and faster movement, and provides more coverage across the mid-section during forward folds and inversions. If you’ve found that standard-waist pants shift during practice, the high-rise option typically solves that.

Two Closure Options

Select your closure at checkout — Drawstring or Elastic. The drawstring version allows you to dial in the exact tightness at the waist. The elastic-only version pulls on in seconds with no adjustment needed. Both versions sit at the same high-rise position on the body. Both have the same harem silhouette below.

Color Options

Available in three blue shades (Blue 1, Blue 2, Blue 3 — ranging from mid-blue to deeper indigo tones) and Red. The blues are the most versatile and consistently popular. Red is the high-energy option — particularly striking for dance, festivals, and outdoor wear.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the drawstring and elastic versions?

Both versions have the same high-rise harem silhouette and sit at the same position on the body. The drawstring version allows you to adjust the waist tightness precisely — useful if you’re between sizes or prefer a very secure fit during active movement. The elastic-only version pulls on in seconds with no adjustment. If you do a lot of dynamic yoga or dance, the drawstring version gives more control. If you want simplicity, elastic is faster.

How do high waist harem pants differ from palazzo pants?

High waist harem pants have the classic harem silhouette — a dropped crotch that tapers toward the ankle. The palazzo pants in the collection have a wide, flared leg that stays consistently wide from hip to hem. Both are high-waisted, but the leg shape is the key difference: harem tapers, palazzo flares.

What are the blue shades — how different are they?

Blue 1 is the lightest — a mid-tone clear blue. Blue 2 is a slightly deeper, more saturated blue. Blue 3 moves toward indigo territory. All three photograph as distinctly different shades. If you want the most versatile blue for everyday wear, Blue 2 is the most consistent. If you want the bolder, deeper option, Blue 3 is the one.
