[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]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.  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.[/quote]

Ditto. Tried to make low rise work for me for the past 20 years. Thin or not so thin, they were never comfortable on me. I love the higher rise jeans from Madewell. I don't tuck in my tops so I don't think they scream high-waisted mom jeans at all. [/quote]
