Also ass-less women in duo-toned Daisy Dukes, they are just as bad.
With house-arrest anklets and side ponytails, too boot.
As for the young lady in blue, what has become of her pants?
Looks like that young lady on the right could use some butt warmers...she's going to be quite chilly in fall '05.
It's truly horrible...
Let them be used as bun-warmers for that other model.
Dear Manolo,
Did they ever leave?
Love,
1982
Teens in Indiana wore legwarmers and flip-flops all winter this season.
Not quite sure what that says.
Oh thank god! Someone with some sense! God bless you, Manolo!
I've seen them all over France all winter and I HATE them. Sure I wore them the first time around, but only in a dance studio.
oh, er, and that was me. heh.
Dear Leg warmers;
I can not handle the love hate relationship we are having. You were such a childhood love, then you faded out of my existence. Then you came back a couple of years ago like a bad coldsore. Then you were out again and I rejoiced. And now you're back, like a horrible ex-boyfriend asking for money. Just go out, and never come back. Ever. Not on the runway, not on Bai Ling, not ever.

I see that they are accompanied by shapeless off-the-shoulder cable knit sweaters. How nice.
Kill me now, please.
And I see the "The Wedgie" is still going strong.
Dearest The Manolo and others,
It has been quite some time since I have been able to stake my claim in the fashion world. Sure, some seasons I seemed to be favoured, but Indiana teens nothwithstanding, this time around, I have ensured my place in the hallowed hallways of Fashion. For as long as there are the Paris Hiltons, Britney Spears, and other fashion victims with no individual sense of style or taste, I will always be here, just lurking behind a corner -- that corner! -- LONG LIVE THE LEGWARMER and all the fashion slaves who love me!!!!!!!!
luv always and forever,
The Legwarmer

. . . In a world made of steel, made of stone. . . .
Why look! They're back! It's. . . it's. . . it's. . . like deja pew!
This is bad news, folks. If leg warmers are back, can a remake of
Flashdance be far behind?
Ask and ye shall receive, anonymous... Best part is, J-Lo's gonna be starring.
And don't forget the remake of Footloose in the works.. with Britney! Scary days, folks. Scary days. Let's hope these rumors remain rumors.
Hey, these outfits aren't so bad. I thought the drag queens at the last gay pride parade looked fabulous! But they did have better tushies...

As you were saying about dignity and timeless fashion. Ah yes, these clothes really emphasize the dignity and mystery that is woman. It is a mystery to me why any woman with a sense of self worth would by that tatty looking crap.
The Alexis, she offers you this image:
14-20 year olds, very tan, long, straightened, blonde or very highlighted brown hair, miniskirt of the denim, sweater, legwarmers, and flipflops. In January.
I see this every time I go to the mall, and it is a dagger in my heart.
Pair those with a matching poncho and voila, Hooker Chic!
And if my eyes aren't deceiving me, aren't those *pom-poms* hanging from the top of the offending legwarmers?
Oh, please, no! I am betting that most of the people who will wear them were too young in the 80's to remember the horror.
I stayed away from them as a teenager and I shall stand steadfast now :)
