Q: Did a certain designer just decide to bring back skinny jeans in his/her collection and then it just became a hit again? And who was the designer? Just curious 🙂

A: Actually it started in the 50’s…beatniks started wearing then it started mainstreaming…there’s a great skinny leg jean scene in a movie that made them blow up in the fashion worlld and the gap used it in a promo…Funny Face starring Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire…..then they died down thanx to capri’s and bell bottoms.

A: skinny jeans actually from another decade (except higher waisted), but I forget which. anyway, vintage looks are in right now. also looks that are tailored and sophisticated for free flowing and romantic. and there’s also the fact that people want to be skinny.

Any guys wear non-skinny girl’s jeans?

Q: Ok, so before we begin, this has nothing to do with being straight or gay. For years now I have occasionally bought women’s jeans instead of men’s jeans because I have sort of oddly curvy hips for a guy, and men’s jeans often don’t fit me well. I do wear guy’s jeans when I can find some that are comfortable, but it’s hard and they’re usually expensive. Usually I end up just having to buy pants that are too big for me and belt them so they fit around my hips, but that usually ends up looking too baggy and dumpy, and I tend to look like a slob. But here’s the thing, I don’t look good in skinny jeans, I buy the kind that are more of a relaxed fit, with flared legs. At Old Navy, the “Sweetheart” cut fits me great. I usually buy them a size up from what would fit me if I was a girl wearing them so there’s just a little bit more room to them, so the appeal for me is definitely not that they’re tight. I got excited when the guys-wearing-girls jeans trend started up, thinking it might make men’s pants designers start making curvier cuts of jeans for men, but then all the boys started wearing the skintight ones, which are sort of the opposite of what I want…Are there any other guys who do this? Wear girl’s jeans because they fit better on their body and not just because they want to wear super tight jeans?To scarlet – The skinny jeans for guys trend started because guys were buying tight jeans for girls. Hot Topic even had a brand of jeans called “My Ex-Girlfriend’s Pants” or something like that. It was mostly an emo thing, another reason why I didn’t indulge in it.And the buying them a size-up aspect helps with the crotch thing, also, a girl I used to date told me she wasn’t surprised the old navy jeans fit me so well because she always thought they had too much extra room in the crotch for girls anyway, she said she hates their jeans because of that.

A: hey i wear levis girl jeans in straight cut or boot cut as they fit better i have some levis 501`s but the crotch hangs to low and irratates my thighs, i wear my waist line low and they just do fit better i do get the plain pocket ones and have asked the girls at work if they even noticed , most said no .do it if it s right for you.
