    Dallas pants company forecasts dreaded return of zippers and buttons

    OMG, pants with zippers and belts, and shirts with ties.

    It's good news on the coronavirus front, with greater availability of vaccines and a decrease in the number of cases tallied daily.

    But there's bad news on the pants front: According to a release from Haggar Clothing Co., the Dallas-based apparel company known for its dress pants, there's been an increase in sales of dress wear.

    Goodbye comfy stretchy sweats. Hello buttons, zippers, and belts.

    Haggar is trying to put a good spin on it by touting products such as its Cool Right Performance Flex Pant, featuring four-way stretch fabrics, comfort waistbands, moisture-wicking properties, wash & wear products, and eco-friendly yarns.

    Thank you for your efforts, Haggar, but the numbers don't lie.

    Haggar has experienced a substantial sales increase in suits, dress pants, and khaki products. Sales in March 2021 were 58 percent higher than in February, and nationwide purchases of Haggar products over the last two weeks were within 10 percent of pre-pandemic numbers.

    According to the release, traffic in retail stores and sales of Haggar products have rebounded earlier than expected with numbers that approach, or even exceed, their 2019 sales.

    Haggar has 30-plus retail locations, a direct-to-consumer eCommerce platform, and its products are sold in more than 10,000 stores across the U.S.

    Haggar President and CEO Michael Stitt says in a statement that "weddings, graduations, and other events that were once postponed are now being planned, creating a sales surge for jackets, dress pants, and khakis. Our data and sales results tell us that people are growing confident about going out and are feeling the need to socialize."

    What next? Shoes with laces? Socks? Shirts with ties? Bras?

    At the very least, after the past year of wearing stretchy clothes, these new business pants with zippers and buttons are going to require a manual to explain how they work.

    No question, people can't wait to get back to normal — but can't sweats be officially proclaimed the new business casual?

    But PS, it gets worse. According to Vox, one of the most unforgiving clothing items known to mankind is back: Low-rise jeans are supposedly cool again.

    Dallas' once-a-year Salvation Army fashion show sale is a shopper must

    The actual sale will probably not be this color-coded.

    It's one of the hottest sales of the year and it's happening in Dallas on May 9-10: It's the After-Sale hosted by the Dallas Women’s Auxiliary, featuring designer clothing, shoes, and accessories at a highly discounted price.

    This annual event has been called one of Dallas’ best kept secrets: a designer warehouse sale featuring new and gently worn clothes from the city’s best dressed closets and local boutiques. Featured pieces include designers such as Carolina Herrera, Ulla Johnson, Marc Jacobs and more.

    It's part of the Dallas Women’s Auxiliary’s Fashion Show & Luncheon which since its inception in 1993 has raised more than $16 million for The Salvation Army of North Texas.

    This year’s Fashion Show & Luncheon took place on May 6 at the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center and included a seated lunch and runway show featuring designer labels donated from Dallas’ most admirable closets and boutiques. Patrons were able to shop from The Chic Boutique or purchase runway items through a silent auction, with proceeds supporting The Salvation Army.

    Dallas Women’s Auxiliary President Laura Downing and founding Emeritus Auxiliary member Margot Perot honored Nancy Dedman with the namesake Margot Perot Service Award. Millie Cooper, whose leadership and legacy have inspired countless women to service, was recognized as the Legacy Award recipient. The inaugural Love in Action Award was presented to Toni Turner for her commitment to making the Dallas Women’s Auxiliary and the Fashion Show & Luncheon a success.

    “Each year, the Fashion Show & Luncheon serves as a positive reminder of the immense generosity of our advocates, partners, and donors,” said Major Dawn McFarland, area commander of The Salvation Army of North Texas. “It’s truly special to see North Texans come together for such a remarkable event, all in the name of service. We invite those who were unable to attend to come out for our After Sale. Every dollar makes a difference, and what better way to show support than by sprucing up your wardrobe!”

    The Fashion Show After Sale will take place at 9216 Harry Hines Blvd. May 9-10, from 10 am-6 pm and feature gently and never-worn women’s, men’s, and children’s clothing, as well as shoes, handbags, and accessories at discounted prices — donated from coveted closets and boutiques in North Texas.
