      Yup. Late post to this, but went shopping with our kids the other day and our daughter picked out several of the high waisted jeans that are popular now. I just chuckled looking at them and pointed out to my wife that she used to wear the exact same thing in high school - late 80s.

    And there are people that make more money in a year than you’ll make in your life, whose “job” it is to decide to raise that seam a half inch up from last year for fashion, to acolades and red carpet galas praising their unparalleled genius for doing it.

    Then the ones that actually make the jeans that people actually wear make less in their lives than we make in a year.

    Humans are soooo weird, cruel, and cruel in genuinely weird ways.

      They didn’t “decide it”. If you get fat as many nowadays do, you’ll just spill over your jeans. The only way to avoid that is by raising them up high. This is one disingenuous picture because of that.

      I’d we were suddenly as soon as we were in 2011, we would wear the clothes the way we did in 2011 .

        Not only is this not true, but like others in the thread have said, the current jeans fashion is actually a callback to the 1980s.

          Yeah, it’s been here a while and is already moving on to the 90’s, I’m seeing huge wide jeans out there. As a slim jeans wearer who doesn’t care much for fashion I am stocking up now because they are going to be like gold dust soon, I’m not making that mistake a second time.

        It was pretty great going to high school when the interesting fashion trends were low rise jeans and thongs. I mean, the rest of high school was awful, but at least there were whale tails.

      Well you’re in luck because this meme is completely wrong. Low rise jeans are in style and have been starting to go on trend for a couple years, they’re everywhere now.

      It should be:

      Late 90’s to 2000’s low rise jeans

      2010’s high waisted jeans

      2020’s low rise jeans

      2030’s Best Jeanist?

      Whoever made this is a full decade out of touch with fashion.

    They haven’t been paying attention for long enough to make such a prediction.

    The waist height vs time function is approachable to a sinusoidal function with a period of about 20 years.

      This is the correct answer. It’s sinosoidal and the frequency has to stay low enough that the time between peaks and troughs will necessitate that people continuously buy jeans and can’t reuse the ones from the prior peak or trough.

        So what you’re saying is the comic is backwards?

          No, time is cyclical. All of this has happened before, and all of this will happen again.

      Yeah you can tell that this is a place full of coders. People talking about trends from the 80s being current and 90s arriving, when 00s has been back for a while already.

      I was thrilled to pull my overly baggy skater clothes out again (then decide they definitely look bad and put them back).

        Haha I feel you. My theory is that once the trends and styles of your own youth reappear/are recycled by the younger generations, you are usually out of the game. That’s when you stop going with the trends. Because you cant ‘ironically’ wear the clothes you wore seriously 20 years ago, again. I can’t, at least…

      Correct. Along with crop tops. Because it’s the era of paying more for less in everything, even clothing materials.

          I also love me some toned abs. The guys in my skate park wears crop tops and sometimes I just sit on the ground eating cherries.

    So 2 datapoints = the trend forever? I mean today I parked my car one space to the left of where I parked it yesterday. So I guess in a month it will be in the middle of the street.

    I noticed 90s high top jeans are back in fashion lately, lots of 20 year olds walking around looking like my mum haha, but eventually they’ll lower again, and then go up, down, up, etc, it’s just a cycle is all.

      Yup. Lots of 90s fashion is in right now. My daughter is wearing flannel shirts. I told her I could have loaned her some of mine but I got rid of them all about 20 years ago.

    If you did this comparison from the 70s to the 2030s you’d have pants around the ankles.

    It fluctuates, wear whatever makes you happy. Don’t try to slippery slope fashion, they’re way ahead of you already
