One underground fashion trend that we all remember from the late 2000s to the 2010s were skinny jeans. For some who may not know tight fitting pants have been around for hundreds of years which can date back to the 1700s in Europe and England. But what I wanted to talk about specifically was the past decade as we saw the skinny jeans trend take over. I myself have fell victim to this trend as I remember going into H and M in middle school to pick out the tightest pants possible. During this time many people wanted to showcase their slim figure and there was no better way to do so then wearing tight pants. Now a days because the world is progressing in a more body inclusive society skinny jeans aren’t as popular as they use to be. Being seen as pants that body shame those who don’t conform to the tight fitting.

    I also remember that leggings were all the rage a decade ago. Because I also have many leggings in my closet. Because people are now more confident and less anxious because of their figure, leggings will only appear in some gyms and other places.
