We type this with pinched legs, because the trend that you thought (and especially hoped) were that you would never see it again is back. The visible string Has Entered the Chat. And we have our reservations.
The String-Boven-Broek Trend is back
Velvet tracksuits a la Juicy Couturedenim on denim, and butterfly pin. Fashion from the 2000s has been indispensable in fashion for a long time. Where we are generally happy with the return of often innocent trends like a dress on jeans – hello Katie Holmes – we still have to swallow at hip pants. And now also with the visible string.
Yes, the G-string above your pants is back. What was once worn in early 2000 by pop stars such as Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera now appears with some regularity Emily RatajkowskiBella Hadid, Hailey Bieber and most recently during New Year’s Eve Dua Lipa.
Where most most millennials Just about everything to do the time of mini-skirts and low-cut pants, the Y2K-Fashion is a huge source of inspiration for Gen Z. It is not surprising that the 2000s made a comeback, since all trends come and go in periods of twenty years-but a string? Above your pants?
And then we have not even mentioned how incredibly uncomfortable this trend is. For some, wearing a normal string already brings irritations; Hello abrasive lace between your soft legs. We prefer to put on a hipster.
Of The return of the visible string We not only relive the inconvenience-you also raise it higher than a normal string-but also a piece of privacy violation. Such a visible piece of fabric is of course no problem at home and even a photo for on Instagram is fine. But walk around with it? Where the whole world can immediately see which color underwear you have pulled out of the closet today?
In addition to the aforementioned discomfort, it is also totally illogical. For years we do everything we can to moffel every unevenness or line under our clothing with Shapewear, invisible underwear And name it, and then to show everything and everyone that we are wearing a string.
There is only one thing we can think of now and that is the anti-smoking commercial from KWF Kankerbestrijding from 2012. You know, that one advertising video smoking was compared with a thong above your pants. Can really no longer, was the conclusion from that.
