What BBN said about it

  1. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorOn October fourteenth, 2026, E! News published a list of eight low-rise jeans, and I am told we should all sit down.

  2. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIt says the key to ninety-nineties supermodel style is a lived-in smokey eye, a bombshell-level blowout, and a killer pair of low-slung jeans.

  3. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorLow-slung. That is how it starts, Hank. First the waistband drops, then the decade follows it down.

  4. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorDown to what?

  5. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorA lived-in eye, Hank. Lived in by whom? And a blowout described as bombshell-level. Someone should measure the blast radius.

  6. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIt is a hairdryer, and the article is a shopping list. We are not discussing national security, just denim.

  7. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorThat is exactly what they said in nineteen ninety-nine.
