No More Skinny Jeans for Kate?

Kate Moss was the center of attention yesterday in London when she turned up to attend an event for Topshop (right), fueling speculation that she has agreed to design a line for the store (loved by everyone from Moss to Kate Middleton). As much as we would love to see a collaboration between Kate and our beloved Topshop, our attention is totally focused on her jeans — specifically, her faded bell-bottom jeans. Not only is Moss always one step ahead of every fashion trend (she was even named “The Trendsetter” as one of PEOPLE’s Best Dressed), but she was one of the first to rock the super-dark, super-skinny jeans (left, in April), making tight, black denim a signature of her style. Now that Kate is wearing light flares again, does this mean that skinny jeans are on their last legs? Which look do you prefer?

Skinny jeans do not look good on anyone, they look to tight. The body looks more balanced with flare leg. When jeans don’t look good on Kate Moss, you know its not a good trend.

Wow — faded bell bottoms are back! Am I thrilled or what! Skinny jeans are so uncomfortable when you have to sit down so thanks, Kate!!

I’m all for keeping an open mind. What I am not all for is hopping on the skinny jean bandwagon and sqeezing into a trend item that I know isn’t right for me.

Yeah… you’d think that if anyone could wear skinny jeans it would be Kate Moss, but seeing them side by side she definitely looks better in the slightly flared ones. Maybe the skinny jeans style won’t last long after all… here’s hoping!

I mean skinny jeans are cute on Kate, however I love those bell bottom pants she has on because they are really cute and makes her look a little more laid back. However, I just hope that if bell bottoms do come back in style it does not get like how some people use to wear them. Super tight on top and then u see this huge flare and no feet. The pair that Kate is wearing though, are HOT.

Flare…definitely.

Holly September 18th, 2006

No skinny jeans for me! I like the flare look a lot better! Comfort is important for me, and skinny jeans just don’t look comfortable to me!

Danielle September 18th, 2006

I definitely like the flare jeans better. I myself prefer the flare legs as well. I have always worn boot cut or flare legs… even back in the day I would by vintage clothes just to get the look of worn flares or boot cut jeans.

My favorite part about jeans as a fashion staple is that certain styles stay “in” longer than other kinds of clothes. Relaxed-looking, basic jeans always seems appropriate. I was actually just eshopping for some good skinny jeans for myself a few minutes ago. I understand they’re just a momentary trend, but why not have a little fun? I definitely prefer the comfy kind of jeans that you wear just running around, but I think I will try skinny jeans for the heck of it. Plus, I’m sure they would work better wearing high boots over them. It was a nightmare last winter trying to stuff my flared-legs into a pair of knee-high boots!!

i really like the flare jeans, however i feel that if you wear the skinny jeans you should always wear them with at least 2 and a half inches of heals, otherwise stick to the basic flare jeans. not everyone looks good in skinny jeans but some people do, and kate moss i think looks good in them she just needs the heels
