And there are people that make more money in a year than you'll make in your life, whose "job" it is to decide to raise that seam a half inch up from last year for fashion, to acolades and red carpet galas praising their unparalleled genius for doing it.
Then the ones that actually make the jeans that people actually wear make less in their lives than we make in a year.
Humans are soooo weird, cruel, and cruel in genuinely weird ways.
They didn't "decide it". If you get fat as many nowadays do, you'll just spill over your jeans. The only way to avoid that is by raising them up high. This is one disingenuous picture because of that.
I'd we were suddenly as soon as we were in 2011, we would wear the clothes the way we did in 2011 .
Not only is this not true, but like others in the thread have said, the current jeans fashion is actually a callback to the 1980s.
Yeah, it's been here a while and is already moving on to the 90's, I'm seeing huge wide jeans out there. As a slim jeans wearer who doesn't care much for fashion I am stocking up now because they are going to be like gold dust soon, I'm not making that mistake a second time.
Pardon me?
How Soon is Now?
Has Anyone Really Been Far Even as Decided to Use Even Go Want to do Look More Like?
