Wide-legged and flowing, they are causing a storm on social media, with people posting videos of the fabric getting caught in escalators and causing painful trips.
Usually people don’t drag their skirt on the ground like the cuffs of those pants. It’s a stupid design, the way to make them work is to model them after Japanese Hakama pants, but use lighter material.
Uh, you are aware that until recently, skirts actually had a hem, a removable/replaceable section of cloth at the bottom, specifically meant to touch the ground so a woman’s feet weren’t visible, right?
There are also entire cultural/religious outfits that to this day still touch the ground that are worn daily.
Just because its not a common sight where you are doesn’t mean it isn’t a thing any were else.
So what exactly is happening when people wear these danger-pants? Apparently the voluminous fabric gets wrapped around itself, as well as the wearer’s ankles and feet, causing them to trip.
Surely that’s always going to be an issue with this kind of very baggy design? That’s what stylist Clare Chambers told the Metro. “The wider the leg, the more likely it is to get caught and wrapped around the opposite leg/foot causing the wearer to trip and fall,” she said.
Have skirts not been a thing before?
Some people’s parents didn’t teach them to fear and respect the escalator.
I hope her pants get caught and a bloodbath ensues!
This a symptom of a society who didnt see LiveLeak escalator accidents growing up

Until recently, when escalators became more of a thing, because it’s a stupid fucking design to be dragging your clothes on the ground.
No, there are still clothing designs that incorporate hems that touch the ground.
I see. The tripping issue comes from the interior leg fabric. That makes a little more sense.
Not sure but usually a skirt does not touch the floor.
Back in the day they did though, when it was fashionable
Yess death to the flowy extra baggy ridiculous trash bag pants.
