Question though. Can I still wear skinny ankle cut black pants? Spanx 4 pocket ankle pant was my go to for work, and Spanx has now gotten rid of almost anything but wide legs. Blah.


Yes.

I would trade the booties for ballet flats or sneakers; pair the jeans with an oversized blazer or trench-style coat/jacket over a button-down or basic t-shirt.


DP. So booties are out in general? Thanks.

I love that multiple styles of jeans can coexist now because that means stores have to carry them all.

I think it’s fine, just don’t wear, like, the waterfall cardigan that you bought in 2015 with it.

good ! Those giant wide legs pants are terribly. Everyone looks sloppy and huge. I hate them.

I’ve made the mistake of getting rid of jeans three times only for them to come back in style. Usually I keep them for 10 years before I finally cave and get rid of them. This skinny return was really fast.


Eh I don't think they really left. This supposed "comeback" is based on a Miu Miu show (the Alexander McQueen look doesn't have skinny jeans). The brand has been trendy based on the Y2K resurgence but not everyone followed it. A lot of luxury influencers (younger, in their 20s/30s) like Miu Miu because it's still high-end but more playful, but almost no one really dresses like this.


You dont seem to understand how trickle down fashion works.


I do. But you can find any style in a store nowadays, and people have dressed accordingly. I see a bunch of different styles where I live, and not everyone cares for influencers (who are not of high status anyhow).

Vogue is just trying to get you to spend money. Don’t fall for it.

Hey there - wide leg jeans look great on tall, slim people like me And they are comfortable. And more youthful.

I am never wearing tight pants again for the rest of my life. It's the only good outcome of the Covid Era.


I'm a petite person and I love them. When proportioned properly, they make me look leggy.


I'm petite as well, I agree that they lengthen the leg, but they're hard to style as an outfit if your torso is short and your waist isn't super tiny.


My torso is short, my waist isn't super tiny, and I actually find them easier to style than a lot of other styles of jeans. I wonder if we're short waisted in different ways? I also wear a lot of midi skirts and dresses - I like the proportions of something more fitted on top and a-line or loose on bottom. I'm just five feet tall FWIW.


Another shorter person who likes the wide leg higher waisted. My guess is that it doesn’t work on short people with a big chest because it’s harder to do the fitted on top and wide leg bottom. I also tend to like the wide legged better in a softer fabric, the jeans can sometimes look llle a paper stick figure with pants drawn on — like they could just walk away on their own.


I am PP and you're probably right about the big chest/small chest thing.

I'm short with a medium sized torso but a proportionately tiny top - shoulders, chest, all of it. Wide legged just make me look extra hippy. I don't look good in skinny either. Slim straight or a slight boot.
