The fashion world isn't about real life. Unless you're a model or celebrity, you're not really expected to wear Fashion-with-a-capital-F while shopping for groceries.
Most of the time, those crazy looks point to trends that will trickle down to the mainstream in much more subtle ways. A huge dress made of ruffles bigger than you can imagine could just mean you'll be seeing tiny ruffles on blouses and skirts next summer.
These collections are called "Ready-to-Wear," and are meant to be just that, but let's be honest: they're still way too out there for most of us.
Which is really the only reaction one should have to these denim panties by Y/Project.
These monstrosities were immediately panned after being posted to the Instagram of Canadian online retailer SSENSE.
Though the listing describes them as "denim brief-style shorts in navy," it still calls them panties.
And denim underwear sounds like a sweaty, chafing nightmare.
I wouldn't pay that for a full pair of jeans, let alone a tenth of a pair.
And really, denim aside, who would actually wear high-waisted, brief-style shorts anyway? They aren't even flattering on the super-skinny model.
These panties were part of Y/Project's Spring 2019 Ready-to-Wear collection, but while some of the stuff is cute, this is just a step too far.
