long-length inseam
Michelle Obama has quickly become a style icon. She's just like anybody else, so I wouldn't say she gets it right every time, but she's striking enough hits to keep people clamoring for her look.
As of today, I am not Obama's style assistant, but that could change overnight. (I just have to believe!) What I do know, based on published reports and her own admission, is that she buys off the rack as well as peppers her wardrobe with designer pieces. She most famously wore on "The View" a dress from White House Black Market (www.whitehouseblackmarket.com). I didn't see a lot of long-length inseam pants, though.

long inseam
De fato, não se trata da altura do zíper (ou fecho-éclair) mas sim da altura do gancho mesmo, ou seja, da costura que junta as pernas das calças. Apesar de não ser "inseam" a mesma coisa em inglês (é o comprimento da parte interna das pernas), por pura sorte (êita nóis!) acontece que a altura to gancho vem a ser o comprimento do "inseam" (é possível ter tanta sorte?)

coolbrowne
: Em inglês, neste contexto, "inseam" abrevia "inseam length" uma medida linear absoluta, ao contrário de "gancho alto" que é (corretamente, em português) uma referência relativa.

high-waisted
trousers can be high-waisted, or, in the opposite case, low-rise. Anything in-between would be mid-rise...
