Fashion Cycle

Is anybody else feeling the need to party like it's 1977?

OMG! It's Amanda Peet! um...no. While I was glad to see high waisted pants go their way, I must admit that I never cared for the "pants slung low on hips with cropped top and belly pooching out" look. Must be my Yankee Puritan streak.

Noooo!!!! I was watching a rerun of Saved by the Bell yesterday and laughing at the horrible high waisted pants.
I wore my share of high waisted pants as a kid in the 70s and
80s and I won't do it again. Althouhg, it's better than the low low low waisted pants, which I absolutely refuse to wear. You sit down and instant plumber's crack.

While I find the wide legs comfy, I do NOT like high waists! I don't like them too low either. Yes, I'm hard to please.

Sure, but only if you bring me Sesame street and a blankie. I was only two in 1977.

Sure I am, considering I'm so very short waisted that "normal" pants are high waisted on me. Woo Hoo no need to buy the new style!!! Oh wait a minute, wide legs...oops

Thank god they don't have the model in a graphic print polyester shirt, with a killer collar!!

OK, you might be the only person that would actually look good in those!! We expected to see them in your next FO photo shoot:)

i'm by no means overweight, but I'll have to shimmy my wiggly-jigglies into some spanx to look svelte in those pants. :-(

I'm 5-91/2" in bare feet and my hip bone seems to fall at the rib cage of most of the women I know. I most definitely will not be wearing those. They'd make me look like a freak! I have been eyeballing the new super high chunky heels with longing. Again... not for me (do I really need to be 6-1", I think not)but I do love them!

I do not like high waisted pants but I do like the wide legs. I think they offset the hips and I love the swingy feeling I get when walking. I just bought a pair - mid waist style, and I can't wait to wear them.

I love wide legged pants, but hate the high waist (for me they're like a bra and pants in one).

I could do without the disco blouse though.
