<p>Tried to find the article but google just sent mt to shopping sites…it was about how designers are pushing skinny jeans to cut costs as cotton prices and transportation costs rise and the economy won’t support prices goi g up. I think the design trend is longer than that, and that skinny jeans have been coming up for years.<br>
OTOH, I think that it’s partly cost driven, just like the flimsy fabric that t shirts all seem to be made of…</p>
