Guys, 2020 is weird.
People are wearing motorised curtains on their heads and now they’ve started tucking their pants into the straps of their heels in the name of fashion.
It’s very confusing. Observe:
That’s model and actor Rosie Huntington-Whiteley wearing head-to-toe Bottega Veneta (which is Italian for bougie af).
See, by tying the ankle strap around her wide-leg pants, a kind of scrunchie situation is created and… nope, still confused.
Watch: That time we tried festival chaps. Post continues after video.
We feel like this is one of those trends that should have started and ended on a runway, i.e. not for public consumption. It’s basically the sartorial equivalent of a wedgie we just want to pick at but alas, it’s happening.
Here’s some more evidence from the streets of Paris:
If you're not into bellbottoms, there's also the version where you wrap your ankle straps around slim-cut pants for a more tapered look.
Ok, look. We guess this little styling trick could serve some practical purpose. Especially if you're European. Like, maybe it's a way of keeping your ankles warm throughout the icy winter? (But not your... toes?)
Or actually quite a smart option if you're going bike riding in flares?
While mitigating the risk of dirt getting on your best trousers?
We have so many questions we don't even really want the answers to, because fashion.
You know what this means, people. Keep an eye out at your local Zara...

Yeah, nah, it's mossies. Very practical, nothing itchier than an ankle bite.
Reminds me of a classier version of the fashion of my early teen years, where we tucked our pants into our long scrunchy socks.
We prefer not to talk about those dark and difficult times
Get a kardashian to wear it and women will be doing this everywhere.
Nope. Literal opposite unless you're young and none too bright.
Plenty of those
None I'd trouble myself with.
