The Latest Fashion Trend: Pants . . . with Just One Leg?
Is this creative, high-end fashion . . . or SHRINKFLATION?
One of the supposed new trends we could see in 2025 is: ONE-LEGGED PANTS. So, one of your legs is covered in a pant-leg, like usual . . . and the other is mostly exposed, as if you were wearing a mini-skirt or short shorts.
Several fancy fashion companies have had models wearing these on runways, and one even has these "pants" as part of a collection of workplace womenswear for next spring.
It sounds silly, and it is . . . but the designers seem excited about its "asymmetrical" look . . . kind of like how there have been trends of wearing mismatched socks and footwear.
The real question is: Are you still paying for TWO LEGS, but only getting one? And the answer is: Oh, yes . . . and even more!
This is only super expensive fashion right now, so you won't be getting them for Old Navy prices.
It's also worth pointing out: These seem to be targeted mostly at women, as an eveningwear thing for flashy occasions . . . they aren't marketing this to the rugged jeans, blue-collar crowd. Yet.
(Here's a look at the one-legged pants . . . and another . . . and another. Taylor Swift has been rocking the look on her Eras Tour for a while now.)
