Zainab market is now full of non-skinny jeans (although i think theyre still the ones most easily available); wide leg, flared, mom jeans etc. Every shopkeeper is well versed in their various names also 🤓
Amazing as always - I always relate to your writing so viscerally, it takes me a moment to remember that you wrote this and I didn't just eject the thought from my brain onto the page. Fantastic stuff!
Love this. As an unambiguously lower middle class person in Boston, my fashion choices are driven by practical concerns like weather or how many miles I’ll walk to work. I also feel like being impervious to the trend cycle is a powerful thing.

Insightful! Also, I feel a lot older now too but thanks for blaming it on America and it's fashion cycles 🤣
