I feel okay stating that my favorite genre of fail videos are ones involving comical falls, because falling down for very stupid reasons and being incredibly relieved to not be witnessed is painfully familiar to me. (General pro tip: Don’t wear clogs to a self-service car wash.) But I take no pleasure in the number of women recently brought down by Zara’s flowy wide-leg pants, whose ultrawide hems and lightweight, silky fabric make it fiendishly easy for a walking — or worse, running — person’s foot to get caught in a swirl of excess material.
