High waisted jeans

Believe.

Agree. If you’re not a model, they look really stupid.

The only people I've seen who look good on high waisted jeans are a few teenagers and very few people in their 20s. I was at a mall this past Friday night and was surprised to see almost every teen wearing these and for the most part, I found them unflattering even on them. These are for people who like the long, flat butt look!

The reason they are called mom jeans is b/c untrendy, frumpy “moms” kept wearing them after low-waisted became the look in the late 90s.

The mom-Jean equivalent now would be the “mom” wearing low-waisted bootcut jeans with a frumpy muffin top and hens dragging the floor.

As a frumpy middle-aged mom, I was late to the high waisted trend and can already predict I’ll hold onto it long after the kids have moved on (rather back) to hip-huggers.

I like my Madewell jeans. I want to try Everlane, but don’t need a new pair right now.

This is just your old lady-eye. You came of age with a different standard and so it looks wrong to you. Trends change...and it’s just a apart of growing old that we see everything come full circle...again.

But, being an old lady, it is perfectly acceptable to sit trends we don’t like out!

I am trim and petite, and wear high waisted but not loose jeans that go just to my ankle. They look great- AE high rise jegging. I usually wear them with a bodysuit or a similarly form fitting thin turtleneck and ankle booties.

Being my 42 year old self, I totally get that trends change. I like some of the current trends now and some I don't. I still stand by my word. These give most women the look of a long flat butt. I'll stick to my mid rise jeans and don't care if they go out of style!

I was really surprised at how nice the made well high waisted fit. I will second these. The high waisted, curvy was a win for me.

Mid rise takes care of the plumber's crack issue and is more flattering on most than high waist.

This. The world changes, PP doesn't have to but casting aspersions won't Halt it. High-waisted is just back to basics of designer jeans, the waistband isn't resting on bone and the yoke corresponds to the tailbone and suppresses unnecessary fabric above the butt. It's been so long an entire generation sees fit as disfiguring but young people aren't so afflicted.

This.

High waisted jeans are so much better because they tuck it all in. Mine give my less-pert-post-baby ass a boost and smooth my hips and belly.

Low-waisted jeans and their concurrent popularity with the lower-back tattoo and exposed thong are so 2001. BTDT (minus the trashy tat!), not going back again.

My favorites: Acne Needle cut, Madewell High Rise (though they are prone to crotch rips!), J Brand Maria, and Everlane High Rise for jeans. Girlfriend Collective leggings are amazing as well.

NP. Butts are butts, we all know the anatomy, and we all extrapolate when we see them in tight clothing. There's nothing about high-waisted that alters the shape, you're just used to an arbitrary dividing line. Do you tell women in evening gowns their butts look like long johns? You really think this was natural?
