In the course of human civilization, 2016 will go down as the year the world went topsy-turvy — mostly because of politics, but also a little because of the pants.
You see, women known for how they dress (Gilda Ambrosio, Caroline Issa, Giorgia Tordini, etc.) have been stepping out during the international Fashion Weeks wearing none other than trousers with elastic bands stitched to the hems that go around your foot so they stay in place while you do Jane Fonda aerobics or whatever. In other words, they are trying to make that ’80s relic, the stirrup pant, happen again — but actually making quite a convincing case for them?
(In this one, note the fashion-editor battle going on in the comments section.)
While it’s the same concept, we can’t help but notice that the new versions are a bit, erm, more stylish than we remember from back in the day.
