In our fast-paced modern world, trends seem to come and go, from makeup and clothes, to the way we speak. One phenomenon of this is the non-stop changing of fashion trends.

In recent times, we have seen a rising popularity in loose-fit denim jeans. Whether they are flared, or mom jeans, it is clear that for a lot of people, especially younger folk, skinny jeans are a thing of the past!

The style of baggy jeans was most notably seen in the 80’s and 90’s, back then being referred to as “boyfriend” jeans, but soon declined in popularity in the 2000’s when skinny, low-rise jeans became the new thing. So, how exactly did baggy jeans revive? Does this mean more common fashion and lifestyle trends from the past might make a comeback?

The revival of baggy jeans was most commonly noticed during and after the pandemic period in 2020-2021. Many people believe that due to the laid-back nature that quarantine instilled into us, our fashion sense soon reflected these behaviours as well.

It is no surprise for such a thing however. Indeed, baggy jeans are far easier and more comfortable to wear. With more breathable space, and its casual yet chic look, many people have switched to baggy jeans, embracing a unique, yet comfortable style.
