Fashion keeps coming back doesn't it? Its just one big circle that goes round and round over the years. That can only explain why mom jeans can look and feel so good in the year 2017. Mom jeans were pretty popular in the 80's and early 90's though a lot of people felt it was a very unflattering style in later years. I think moms usually wore the jeans to cover their belly pouch after years of having kids. Anyway, fast forward to the new millennium and mom jeans have fast become a popular fashion trend for women of all sizes with or without children.
