[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's an overgeneralization that structured is out.  I am seeing lots of blazers, rigid denim, corset detailing, collared shirts, and other structured pieces in fall fashion. And leggings and bike shorts are on the way out.  The whole "coastal grandmother" trend this summer was about crisp cotton button-ups and linen pants. [/quote]

Yes, but rigid denim was created for manual labor.  It may not be comfy, or at least there are people around here who won't wear it, but it's never restricted activity.  Costal grandmother is certainly leisurewear, just requires more effort to launder.  The sorts of clothing that make sense in an office only, were in decline well before the pandemic.  Fashion is cyclical, but a general tendency toward less formal dress seems constant, certainly hard to shake now that ability to work from home is a signifier.

Kind of sick of people saying this is all because Americans are fat.  People have always come in a variety of sizes, and when I see old photos, often what catches my eye is the people who aren't anywhere near sample size who are wearing tailored clothes.  Today everyone just grabs what's cheap, and don't expect fit.[/quote]
