Jonathan Rhys Meyers on MTV's TRL Skinny jeans have been hugging the slim physique of rockers for years now. From the grunge scene to street chic, men are adopting this trend on and off the stage. But should this look be a keeper or is it high time it took a stage-left exit?
Personally, I find very few categories of men can pull off the skinny jean look. You need to have a naturally slender build with tight enough abs to keep the dreaded waistband "overhang" at bay. For rockers crooning to fans and girating all over the stage, this look (usually) works. I've gotten used to musicians and artists adorning thigh-hugging pants. However, if you don't look like the 'artisy' type, it falls flat. If a man hopes to look 'sexy,' wearing skinny jeans would guarantee a category of women (which I belong to) would not find them attractive by default. In short, leave it to the true artists and creatives to dress the part. If you don't live and breathe it, it's time to adopt your own style and find something that works for you.
