Why does Tiffany look like she ' s trying really hard to not look like she ' s got downs ? <| sep |> May not have been a first since you ' re down where the slide starts . Terrible penalty . <| sep |> Apparently involved the death of ops mom , not cool <| sep |> they were definitely out of style by the early 00 ' s , then we shifted to a normal midcut , and then high waisted pants started coming back around ' 07 or so . the reason low cuts look boyish is because the waistband sits on the hips and makes them look narrower , blending them into the waist . it creates more of a flat , boxy shape than a waistband sitting at the narrowest part of the waist does , where the curve between the smaller waist and larger hips is more pronounced . highwaisted pants are starting to fade off though , and we ' re shifting back towards midrise shapes the past year or so .
