The article discusses the rising trend of poofy pants, referred to disparagingly as "diaper shorts" or bloomers, sparking a significant backlash among fashion enthusiasts. While criticized for their unconventional cut, the history of bloomers as a 19th-century garment and their evolution into fashionable outerwear is explored. High-end designers like Chloé and Miu Miu have embraced this style, selling luxury versions, while celebrities like Dua Lipa and Jennifer Lopez have been spotted wearing them. Despite the disdain, bloomers are becoming a controversial yet popular choice this season.
"Diapers? What the hell?? What the helly?" shrieked a cyber naysayer, criticizing the sack-like shorts from Artizia, a women's fashion retailer.
"Bloomers are a bifurcated garment that were worn under dresses in the 19th century," according to a report from NYC's Fashion Institute of Technology.
French luxury fashion house, Chloé, offers its 'Mini Bloomer Shorts in Silk Charmeuse' for $1,450. Miu Miu hawks cheek-baring bloomers for $995.
Voguish VIPs such as singer Dua Lipa, Jennifer Lopez, Addison Rae and Sydney Sweeney have even been spotted sporting the tiny trousers.
