tapered leg
Gradually narrowing support
A tapered leg narrows gradually from top to bottom, whether on furniture or trousers.
Table and chair legs that taper create a lighter, more elegant appearance than straight legs.
In clothing, tapered leg describes pants that fit more closely at the ankle than at the thigh: These jeans have a tapered leg that works well with sneakers.
