Why has no-one warned us about this jeans-style revival?

[DecorHate]

In Next today I saw several pairs that were like those baggy jeans that were popular in the late 70s/early 80s (around the era of Madness) - gathered at the waist and tapered legs, often elasticated at the ankle

Similar to

this

but the ones I saw were far worse in that they were also baggy at the top. can't find them on the website - they must be too cutting-edge!

Double denim is Rockin all over the world Noooooooooooo!!!!!!

Some of the teenagers around here are wearing straight leg jeans with the high ankle strappy shoes like these

strapped over the top, to give the same sort of look.

Might be my age, but I thought they looked awful

Even the models look shit in these double denim combos.

The second pic down of Alexa Chung looks ok though, she looks cute.

Yikes I can remeber bananarama the first time round, not a good look when in your forties.
Think miss marple in baggy denim.

Dp used to be their drummer so that shows how old I am Better not get them then !

I saw lots of rolled up denim and chinos today,I am keeping an open mind!

Rolled up is fine

Were they like these? bleurgh

How Much!! urgh carroty jeans.

I tried on some stonewash denim jeggings today... the shame.

Not A Good Look.

They look dreadful and I can remember wearing them in the 80s - but I bet by next year we'll all mostly have sucummbed just like we have to leggings treggings / skinny skintight jeans etc

I would love dungarees to come back. I nearly nearly bought some maternity ones a couple of weeks ago (not pg just fat) but realised that none of my family would want to be seen in the street with me if I did so I held off.

AAAh I used to love my denim dungaress, used to wear mine baggy with a vest and my DM boots back in the day!

I refused to wear denim dungarees the first time round. All my friends were wearing them with hoodies and big trainers. It was such a godawful look.

There is no way on earth that I would ever do it again.

What about those shoes you could send off for, advertised in the back of Smash Hits. They were Bros inspired I think, and had watches or something similar embedded in them.

I struggled to carry that look off 25 years ago when I was half the size I am now. Think I'll give it a miss

I am a big dungaree lover but only in the summer, a strappy vest, flip flops and a pair of sunglasses and I own summer , but noooo to the cuffed jeans....

my dungarees were grungey - worn with vests and floppy cardigans and monkey boots.the last time I wore them was when dd was 2. she found them and insisted I dress up as bob the builder

I quite like the cuffed ankle thing, in practical terms, it would stop the bottom of ur jeans getting soggy if rainy or muddy, also like slim jeans 4 that reason. I do feel bootcuts/wide legs are prob more flattering but hate wet bits at hems!

I shall nott be buying any!

Why are they called carrot jeans?
