Lets hope it doesnt catch on

My heart nearly stopped when a friend of mine sent the image above with the subject line “How Long before its here?” My response? NEVER! Apparently the Jeans Bikini Pant is a trend instigated by the Brazilians that is now infecting teen girls in Japan, which is a shame seeing as the Japanese are usually so on point when it comes to fashion.

I seriously can’t see the appeal and this is one trend I do not wish to see on the high street. I only just about managed to survive the whole “thong showing above a pair of hipsters” and don’t think my heart can take this travesty. And to think all it’d take for it to become a regular sighting on the streets would be for Kate Moss to be pictured in a pair which would promptly be added to her collection for Topshop…what is fashion coming to?

    [...] It’s a bird! It’s a plane! No, it’s Undie Jeans to the rescue! Just the thing for those who have looked their panties and thought Damn, those would look good on the OUTSIDE of my pants! or eyed their favorite designer denim and wondered, Hmm, I bet these jeans would be even more flattering if there were cut-outs at the hips to emphasize my love-handles. It’s only using such counter-intuitive thinking that I can hope to explain the Undie Jeans, as seen on My Fashion Life, under an appropriately titled post “Let’s Hope It Doesn’t Catch On.” If you have other suggestions X S.C.

    That is beyond awful. In fact, I am at a loss for words really. I will pray nightly that these hideous things don’t make it stateside. Now I see what getting a Brazilian means! Actually, these lyrics come to mind:

    “She had dumps like a truck truck truck
    Thighs like what what what
    Baby move your butt butt butt
    That thong th thong thong thong” -Sisqo

    I live in tokyo, and spend a lot of time taking pictures of unusual trends, and just funky sights, and I haven’t seen this anywhere. Wish I had, neither have any of my Japanese friends I sent it to.
    I’ll keep looking though!

    [...] jeans bikini pant Dit is nu eens een kelk waarvan ik hoop dat hij volledig aan ons land voorbijgaat: de jeansbikinibroek. De wat? De jeansbikinibroek, een warempel welgemeende imitatie van de string die boven de jeansbroek uitsteekt. Waarom iemand zoiets ooit zou willen namaken, beats us, maar het schijnt all the rage te zijn in Japan, en de gedachte dat het ooit naar hier zou kunnen overwaaien om de dijken van Blankenberge in te palmen wekt oncontroleerbare huiveringen op.
