Proposal to create wide-leg_pants tag instead of aliasing to bell-bottoms

I wanted to bring up the current wide-leg_pants → bell-bottoms alias because I think these deserve to be separate tags.

Bell-bottoms are fitted-then-flared pants (tight on top, party at the bottom).

Wide-leg pants are wide all the way down with a straight flow. No flare, mostly a consistent width from hip to hem.

I know baggy_pants exists, but I feel that tag should encompass more loose, slouchy pants. Wide-leg pants are intentionally cut that way, tailored to drape straight down.

Examples of wide-leg pants (what I think should be tagged separately):

post #9989750
post #4681378

Examples of bell-bottoms (the current tag):
post #8974156
post #8072990

Examples of baggy_pants (for comparison):
post #10154380

Wide-leg pants tend to be found in more contemporary or formal fashion and is showing up more often these days. It'd be nice to be able to search for them separately!

Would love to hear what others think about making this distinction!

Bell-bottoms are fitted-then-flared pants (tight on top, party at the bottom, very 70s disco).

i think that's a good idea since bell sleeves is a separate tag from wide sleeves

in practice, though, people don't see to use these tags right pretty often. like xingqiu_(genshin_impact) bell_sleeves has fewer posts than xingqiu_(genshin_impact) wide_sleeves

but it's still good to have matching tags for pants as there are for shirts

What are our thoughts team

The bulk update request #49661 (forum #394562) has been approved by @evazion.

There are probably more examples of these in 1990s fashion or Y2K fashion.
