You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.164.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 08:49, 2 March 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

[[File:Sameera Reddy From The Sameera Reddy at Auto Expo (6).jpg|thumb|upright|Actress [[Sameera Reddy]] wearing black high-waisted trousers.]]
A '''high-rise''' or '''high-waisted''' [[garment]] is one designed to sit high on, or above, the wearer's [[hips]], usually at least 8 centimetres (3&nbsp;inches) higher than the [[navel]]. In western cultures, high-rise jeans were especially common in the 1970s, late 1980s through the late 1990s, derided as [[mom jeans]] in the 2000s, and popular again in the mid-to-late 2010s and continues to be popular into the present in competition with [[low-rise pants]].

==Modern fashion==
In western culture, high-waisted pants tend to have long zippers, ranging from about 7-10 inches long, and leave the navel either completely covered or barely shown. Zipper lengths are not to be confused with rises. High-waisted pants have rises typically 10 inches long or longer.<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.primermagazine.com/2013/spend/pants-rise-explained-and-why-low-rise-isnt-always-your-best-choice |title=Pants Rise Explained (and Why Low Rise Isn't Always Your Best Choice) |access-date=30 July 2014))</ref>

In European menswear, pants sat level with the navel until the 1950s, and were held up by a pair of [[suspenders]]. During the 1940s, [[Zoot suit]]ers<ref>[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083365/ Zoot suit]</ref> wore pants with a waistband so high that they often reached the chest.<ref>[http://invention.smithsonian.org/centerpieces/whole_cloth/u7sf/u7materials/cosgrove.html Zoot suits and style warfare] ((webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140813123335/http://invention.smithsonian.org/centerpieces/whole_cloth/u7sf/u7materials/cosgrove.html |date=2014-08-13 ))</ref>

===1960s to 1990s===
Low-waisted [[drainpipe jeans]] and [[flared trousers]] were a counterculture statement among the [[Mod (subculture)|Mod]]s and [[hippies]] of the late 1960s and early 1970s, in contrast to the higher waisted [[Levi Strauss]] jeans teenagers had worn previously. During the late 1970s, however, there was a [[disco backlash|backlash]] against disco and hippie fashions, and members of [[Generation X]] opted for higher rise pants. These straight leg [[acid wash]] jeans remained popular throughout the 1980s and 1990s, until [[hip hop fashion]] went mainstream and it became [[1990s fashion|fashionable]] for teenagers to [[Sagging (fashion)|sag]] their [[baggy pants]].<ref>Keyes, Cheryl (2004). Rap Music and Street Consciousness (Music in American Life). University of Illinois Press. p. 152. ((ISBN|978-0-252-07201-7)).</ref> High rise pants, jeans, and shorts were also popular with men's, young men's, teens, and boys clothing during the 1980s and early to mid 1990s.

===Revival===
During the mid 2010s and continuing into the present, high waisted pants underwent a revival among younger women, in reaction to the low-rise [[skinny jeans]] that were popular during the previous decade.<ref>[https://missmv.com/mom-jeans-vs-boyfriend-jeans-differences-and-how-to-style-them/ Jeans Fashion]</ref>

During the 2000s and 2010s, male celebrities who wore high-rise jeans, including President [[Barack Obama]], [[Simon Cowell]],<ref>[https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/its-not-simon-cowells-age-3193797 Simon Cowell jeans]</ref> and [[Top Gear (2002 TV series)|Top Gear]] presenter [[Jeremy Clarkson]], were ridiculed by the press.<ref>[http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2014/03/14/obama-wants-people-to-quit-bashing-his-jeans/ Obama jeans]</ref>

==Indian culture==
In ancient India, some Indian philosophers opposed [[sari]]s that expose the [[midriff]]. They considered it to be a symbol of adultery.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=eFoOAAAAYAAJ&q=midriff Sarvajna: the omniscient poet of Karnataka - Basavaraj Naikar].</ref>

The [[Dharmasastra]] writers stated that women should be dressed such that the navel would not become visible.<ref name="google1">[https://books.google.com/books?id=NH1qr33kfXAC Encyclopedia of Indian Women Through the Ages: Ancient India – Simmi Jain].</ref> Still today, some corporate offices in India have strict [[dress code]]s for women, requiring high-rise saris to be worn to avoid navel exposure.<ref>((cite book|author=Dr Saurabh Bhatia |title=Indian Corporate Etiquette |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=bmnto6wQ-8cC |access-date=11 June 2011 |publisher=Saurabh Bhatia |isbn=9788190696401))</ref>
