Do you enjoy the same things as Lindsay Lohan? By which we mean, do you share the actress’ scandalous taste for leggings? If so, you’re in luck. The familiar silhouette was reinvented on the Spring runways in cutout patterns at A.F. Vandevorst and Rodarte, and in a flurry of slashes at Meadham Kirchhoff and Rad Hourani. Other designers went print-mad, with bold stripes, graphic patterns, and painterly florals all making appearances. “Leggings have gone to another level; they’re not just for casual wear,” said Adi Gil of Threeasfour. “We’ve used prints that will encourage the wearer’s self-confidence and consciousness of her body.” In other words, these statement-makers require a starlet’s fearlessness.

    You HAVE to be self confident, or at least extremely skinny to look good in leggings. Ugh, they discust me really, I dont like the way they look. I liked the look of some of these, they are more "adult" looking than some that I have seen.

    Darn, I was SO hoping that whole legging trend would die. I'm tired of seeing my little sisters wearing small shirts with those tight leggings and boots. It's just annoying!
