WTF - Horseshoe Jeans

[Delatron]

I’m still not over how bad Mom jeans look on most people. I accept skinny jeans are over, I am happy in my straight legged jeans. But all over my instagram feed are these new ‘horseshoe’ jeans. That basically make you look like you have bandy legs? Just why?

I know I don’t have to wear them I am just despairing of all these awful jeans trends.

I do love a flare. I shall stick with that.

Oh wait, they're not what I thought they were... They're worse 🤣

Hahahaha theyre
fucking awful 😂😂😂😂

I like them 😬 they're not that different to wide leg tho. But who am I to talk, I'm short and have curves to spare and wear skirts and leggings and cardies. Probably all your lot's out of fashion ones off o' Vinted.

It probably helps that I've been seeing this cut on Instagram for years though. Cropped too. So I'm conditioned.

God they are really awful, the model is gorgeous and even she can't save them

Barrel and horseshoe look absolutely ridiculous.
They'll be out of fashion before the year is out.
I'll stick to my skinny & slim leg jeans thanks!

Cripes and be never heard of or seen horseshoe jeans but they are ‘interesting’ aren’t they?!
Im still bowling along in skinnies. I keep trying on other styles but just feel like im dressing in my dad’s jeans in them all. Too saggy and baggy all over the place! I need a personal shopper perhaps…

Eek indeed! Can't see this trend lasting long......

I'm a high waist straight leg girl myself!

I’ve gone unashamedly back to flares and bootcut.

Are skinny jeans out? ... I definitely didn't know this 😳

And I've just googled horseshoe jeans as I'm very unfashionable obviously & haven't heard of them... I've also never seen a person wearing them...

@kennycat agreed!!!! I'm too petite for any other jeans than skinny... I look lost in others lol so skinny jeans all the way for me still

I think they’re quite flattering on apple shapes (not sure what age has to do with anything). Have to be selective with the top, but that’s the same for any trousers.

@Lightnose IF I could get into skinnies, I might want to wear them😂

Me too, but I really struggle to get any that are not scruffy washed out like they are years old... Use to love Bon Marche Sarah's but since they have been taken over, they are rubbish and never in stock. Any ideas for some that are not massive in price?

Jeans makers have to come up with "new" designs because they produce a product that lasts for years. I have 20-25 years old jeans. They need to make sales. These new "horseshoe jeans" are uglier thàn even low rise. Just give me regular rise, boot cut jeans.

Skinny jeans aren't over in the slightest. You will have to prize them out of my cold, dead hands! 😂

Hahaaa! Skinny jeans are ok, since we don't have to all wear them now, the pressure is off. That will relegate them to the classic grade, along with various other, non spectacular shapes. There are outliers, which come and go, but straight, skinny, flare and boot will trundle on and probably never truly grow old.
Only my humble opinion of course.

My gripe is dresses - cheap, thin, impractical and garish. Why oh bloody why? I was hoping for a new year change to the upholstery patterned nonsense of tiers and balloon sleeves, but alas it's all there is, even if you crawl up the market to Wrap or Bloody Toast. Oversized skirts have also made an entrance, huge slabs of shapeless fabric with cheaply manufactures tie or elastic waists. My teenage nightmare right there.

They are Hideous!! Not for me, i'll stick to skinny, straight and bootcuts 🥂

Barrel, horeshoe, balloon etc cannot think of a more unflattering design.
I do have to say mom jeans are the only non-skinny option I have in jeans and look really good on me due to wide hips and small waist. Especially when in flat shoes otherwise I do love a flare or wider leg option.
Have tried on about 30 pairs of straight jeans and absolutely cannot get them to work. Too straight in the hip to waist region and make me look so much shorter.

It rained so much today( and I had to be out all day in it) I wore skinny jeans tucked into boots - sometimes they’re quite practical.

They look ridiculous, i will stick to skinny/straight

When skinnies came back around in the early noughties they were written off as an outlier look that only suited the very slim, inflicted on us by a youth obsessed fashion industry. I remember lots of warnings to steer clear and that anyone buying them who wasn't a snake hipped teenager was a pitiful fashion victim.

This is one reason why I no longer pay much attention to what's 'flattering'.

I miss high waisted boot cuts …

I look like a dumpy little troll in wide leg trousers. Skinny all the way. I see lots of young people in skinnies too.
