Origin of slouchy pants
Above all, these famous slouchy pants, in case you didn’t know, were not created with aesthetic intent. In fact, it wasn’t even created for women. Basically, jeans began to be worn by miners in France during their work.
However, some time later, in 1873, the Jewish merchant from California, Levi Strauss, and his friend and tailor Jacob Davis made jeans a success. In other words, jeans have become the most worn items by men. In fact, jeans only became a clothing option for women in 1940.
It is worth highlighting that they only became options for them, as men, due to World War II, went to the battlefields. Consequently, services that were previously intended for men were now intended for women.
Therefore, many women began to wear pants to help with services. After this period, “Vogue” decided to be bold and create a campaign, with women in jeans. But it was only fifteen years later, in 1955, that baggy pants, similar to slouchy pants, became a trend.

Therefore, as you can already imagine, skinny pants remained for a long time, being the trend and the most worn pants of all times. However, in 2019, to change the pattern of jeans, slouchy jeans were created. Which promises to break several paradigms.
