Fashion is a weird thing
(lemm.ee)
The current female waistline fashion is 1980s throwback
Does that mean 90s fashion is going to make a return soon? I am all for that to be honest.
The 80s throwback has lasted longer than the 80s did.

And there are people that make more money in a year than you'll make in your life, whose "job" it is to decide to raise that seam a half inch up from last year for fashion, to acolades and red carpet galas praising their unparalleled genius for doing it.
Then the ones that actually make the jeans that people actually wear make less in their lives than we make in a year.
Humans are soooo weird, cruel, and cruel in genuinely weird ways.

Lady, if you’ve got the same hips after 20 years, you’re either doing something really wrong, or something really right.

They haven't been paying attention for long enough to make such a prediction.
The waist height vs time function is approachable to a sinusoidal function with a period of about 20 years.
This is the correct answer. It's sinosoidal and the frequency has to stay low enough that the time between peaks and troughs will necessitate that people continuously buy jeans and can't reuse the ones from the prior peak or trough.

We've already seen the upward evolution of high wasted jeans, and it's coveralls.
Haven't low waist pants been having a major comeback for a while now?
Yeah you can tell that this is a place full of coders. People talking about trends from the 80s being current and 90s arriving, when 00s has been back for a while already.
I was thrilled to pull my overly baggy skater clothes out again (then decide they definitely look bad and put them back).

Britney Spears pulled it off in 2001.
Woah I had no idea she was Canadian.
She's from Louisiana, which was originally a French colony whose government was based in Quebec, soooooo this tracks.

So 2 datapoints = the trend forever? I mean today I parked my car one space to the left of where I parked it yesterday. So I guess in a month it will be in the middle of the street.

I noticed 90s high top jeans are back in fashion lately, lots of 20 year olds walking around looking like my mum haha, but eventually they'll lower again, and then go up, down, up, etc, it's just a cycle is all.

If you did this comparison from the 70s to the 2030s you'd have pants around the ankles.
It fluctuates, wear whatever makes you happy. Don't try to slippery slope fashion, they're way ahead of you already
ITT: 35+ year, out of shape, men.

I'm really not a fan of the high waisted era. Bring back the hipster era
I don't disagree, but the high-waisted era works a lot better for girls with more curve to their figures, which I see as a net gain.
And considering the number of overweight/obese people continues to grow apace, it's not a bad thing for them to be able to feel good about themselves and have fashion options that flatter their figures instead of all fashion being catered to near-impossible body types.
This should not be read as an endorsement of obesity, which can be a dangerous medical issue, but rather a willingness to see that everyone deserves to feel positive about their self image. Weight gain is a difficult issue to tackle in a country that subsidizes corn syrup and puts it in damn everything, on top of a broken education system that certainly doesn't teach people healthy eating.
This is a high-quality comment, dingus.
