this is and always will better than brocolli head and white nike ankle socks
And mom jeans. Why the mom jeans??
Every generation goes through a trend of trying to dress older than they are. Momcore is kind of the GenZ version of Millennial “preppy” look.
tbh that look repulsed me as well 20 years ago, haha
They’re comfy and I like them.
I accept the personal comfort level, but the fashion is atrocious 😩
Well, when you get to the age where mom jeans are what you want, it’s a given that you’re also at the no fucks given age WRT fashion.
It’s as liberating as hell.
I blew past mom jeans and went straight to cargo shorts and a strap belt to hold them up (in spite of being fat, I still have no ass), flip flop sandals and leg warmers. And an oxblood woolrich winter flannel shirt.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ de gustibus, non erat disputandem

Mom jeans are hot
Lol
Found them in their Gen-X mom’s closet? I remember a lot of the girls I dated back in the early nineties wore them because they were pretty cheap. You could get them in K-Mart, Wal-Mart, etc. When I met my now wife she would wear Wal-Mart jeans and these bras (also Wal-Mart) that must have been designed in the fifties and had this slightly conical look to them. This country was broke as fuck in the early nineties and we looked it.
I swear the conical bras were popular because of Madonna! I don’t know if that’s actually the case but that’s what I always associated them with, lol
Madonna is a well known, more modern wearer of those kinds of bras, but… they were actually a pretty common type of bra going back to the 40s - 60s, worn by Marilyn Monroe and many other actresses and models / pin up girls.
Behold, the 1950s ‘Bullet Bra’ fashion trend:

So… Madonna too was actually doing a retro callback, as Gen Zers are now doing with ‘mom jeans’.
90s retro aesthetic.
Its cool because they look terrible, ironically!
Haha guys isn’t that so clever?
… its basically brainrot irony poisoning as a fashion style.
I am still confused by the Sydney Sweeney ad showing off jeans.
Booba, she has, junk in the trunk, she does not, and those jeans made her look like she has Hank Hill’s ass.

At first I heard the howling about that ad being dog whistling for Aryan eugenics, I thought it was just overreaction. Then I saw the ad and yeah, it’s absolutely Nazi shit.
Yeah I initially just saw one of them and was like… yeah this is somewhere between ‘pretty edgy’ and dogwhistling…
… and then I saw more from the same campaign and was at the “ok, really?” stage.
But all that aside, I still just don’t get why you’d put her in an ad campaign for pants, telling the viewer they make your ass look great, when what is shown is … again, basically Hank Hill ass.
I guess the marketing execs realized that language is now fully in hyperreality mode, and if you just have generally popular pretty person say thing seductively, it is true.
Someone please stop the capitalist realism ride, I want to get off.

Its called fashion, look it up honey
fashion IMO is the pre-stage of fascism: It’s not based on reason, it’s make-belief, and people fall for it.
Spoken like a dripless mfer
rawr XD
Millennial here, bordering 40.
I just really don’t give a shit how anybody dresses. You want to rock cat ears and anime related stuff? Cool. Painted nails as a guy? Nice one. Wanna wear a dress as a guy? Go for it. Wanna dress like my parents did in their youth? Sure thing. Dress in a way that places you outside of a clearly recognizable gender? Why the fuck not.
Do i get this stuff? Not really. It’s mostly part of a world that i am very clearly not part of. And that’s fine. I don’t have to be in the loop here. Hell, i don’t even have to like outfits somebody, that is not me, is wearing.
Wear whatever you like. As long as it makes you happy and you feel like yourself in it, i just don’t give a fuck.
Based take. Do what makes you happy life is both too short to be upset about how someone else is living their life as well as not living as you want because someone will be upset
I feel the same way. I remember going to the barber and started to realise that there were 6 dudes 14-16 ish. They all got their broccoli haircut. Not really my thing, but at that age i had a bowl cut, who am i to judge? I find pants that doesn’t go all the way down to the ankles weird, and i wouldn’t wear them. But again, i was wearing baggy pants.

This comment right here officer
This was peak fashion

What’s great about this quote is how inclusive it is, it’s literally in the first episode of Invader Zim (not counting the pilot).
Who says this? Millennials and Gen-Z basically wear the same shit, at the tail end we’re separated by 0 years.
, at the tail end we’re separated by 0 years.
I’m pretty sure that’s how every generational boundary works lol
This is now a femboy look.
Boys also dressed in a similar vein back then, no? Pretty sure emo guys were similar.
I was very much in that scene, so i can confirm, however was too fat and self conscious for the two sizes too small shirt.
I saw a Gen z scenegirl/femboy couple on the bus last week lmao
always was, there’s just more of us now
its ok i have a note from my doctor saying i’m allowed to dress like this
Is that Boxxy? That name just jumped out of the depths of some deeply buried memory…
Yeah, ‘It’s Boxxy you see’
I’m 38. I don’t understand this meme. Our style from the 90s and early 00s has come back now, so I totally get the esthetics.
It is weird seeing bootcuts back in fashion…
Not as weird as mullet and mustache combo from the 80s.
could really have done without that returning 🤢
Every time I see a young hipster guy with a mustache, I have to manually unlink the pedo association in my brain …
For as long as I have lived, I’ve always thought “that ugly look should never come back. But if it does, the world must be completely fucked up.” my Nostradamus moment.
We walked so that gen z could run, what can I say?
Gen Z wears the same socks my grandpa did, except they pay 5x as much as he did, even when adjusted for inflation.

What else is new?
