The latest fashion trend is "no pants" [View all]
No pants, no problem? Kylie Jenner, Hailey Bieber, Bella Hadid and more stars and fashion notables seem to think so. They are ushering in a Gen Z fashion trend of leaving the house in just tights or underwear-esque briefs – no outerwear required. Sound risqué? It's just the latest way this generation is taking creative clothing liberties to rebel.
"Fashion is just expressing what's going on broadly in culture," says longtime business of culture journalist Christina Binkley. "We're in a rule-breaking era." Here's why it seems like runways, red carpets and sidewalks are seeing less pants than ever before.
It can mean a couple of different fashion choices, but boils down to a lingerie-inspired outfit. Some step out wearing tights as pants (remember the uproar a few years back about wearing leggings as pants?), men's briefs with nothing else layered on top of it (see: Hadid) or a bodysuit as an entire outfit.
We have Fashion Week and famous models to thank for this look trickling down to regular folk. Designers like Bottega, Miu Miu and Burberry showcased different takes on pants-less looks, and then it was a matter of time before fashion influencers such as the Kardashian-Jenners, the Hadids and Julia Fox made it the buzz-iest fashion trend since Barbiecore. "If you did that in the office, that’s the stuff of nightmares," jokes Binkley. But while it's a decidedly NSFW fashion trend, it isn't terribly indecent by the fashion world's standards.

I think I'll just cut a big hole in something I've already got...
This is probably OK for those working at home, as long as you have the heat up.
