Outfit Video: 8 Ways to Style Mom Jeans


According to Wikipedia: Mom jeans is a slang term for high-waisted women's jeans that were originally fashionable in the late 1980s and early 1990s. In the late 1990s and 2000s they were mainly worn by middle-aged American women and considered unhip by trendy younger women. Mom jeans then came back in style amongst hipsters and fashionably aware young women in the 2010s.

Head to Urban Dictionary and you get a slew of different definitions, mostly pejorative. Yet here we are, living our best 2019 lives in high-waist, tapered leg jeans. I’m especially fond of Agolde’s Nico high-rise slim fit and after polling the IG fam they won for the next #EDPoutfit vid. Keep scrolling for eight ways to style ‘em plus all the outfit deets:
