No! That is just wrong.

I remember carrot legs from the first time around, they were hideous then.

As were peg top trousers fgs.

Who is deciding that they need another sartorial airing?

I'm sure I saw some trousers in gap called 'the peg' the other week!
Those carrot jeans are just horrid!

Lordy when I saw the thread title I thought 'carrot' was a term of abuse, not what the jeans are actually called in their 'advertising' blurb

These suit NO ONE - no matter how juvenile and twig-like.

Now, I have been brainwashed into thinking the 80s revival look (on the young) looks quite cool (blame my glossy mag addiction) But
NO . They are just hideous.
