Every time I see millennials exposed to zoomer fashion they instantly start seething. it’s always some 20 year old celebrity who goes outside wearing baggy clothes with a graphic tee and millennials online start screeching shit like

NOOOOOOO YOU CAN’T WEAR ANYTHING INTERESTING YOU HAVE TO WEAR HYPERMINIMALISTIC SLOP AT ALL TIMES OR YOURE UGLY AND WEIRD

Why are you people like this

    I have not experienced what you are talking about; “baggy clothes with graphic tees” describes millennial fashions anyway. I don’t perceive millennials as being particularly negative toward Gen Z, for my part I think the kids are gonna be okay.

    Are you from some hyperconservative area, like is the mayor also the town pastor and the county judge?

    Not seen this in the UK, in fact all the zoomers here could have been lifted straight out of the 90s. Pretty much every item is identical to something I (or someone I knew) wore.

    Kinda nostalgic to see people cutting about like it’s 25 years ago

    I don’t recall ever saying this.

    I have noticed that millennials are more T-shirt n jeans, and Gen Z is more hoodies and pajama pants. Our Boomer parents never would have let us leave the house like that, so we do have a “sloppy” connotation with those clothes, but obviously the millennials must not mind as much since we’re the ones buying those clothes for our kids.

    Although, I cannot understand the return of mullets and pedo-staches.

      In the late 90s-00s a good half of the school wore hoodies and pajamas everyday. So it was 50/50 t-shirt n jeans vs hoodiejamas.

      I’m with you on the pedo-staches. Ew.
