The model is too skinny AND the shorts are too baggy and ugly.

I guess I don't find them that bad... maybe I just have weird taste in fashion.

I like wearing shorts, pants, skirts with dropped waists. Sorry... no mom pants for me even though I am an old lady. They actually are more flattering on me than high waists.
But, those models did look a bit on the scrawny side. Performance clothes do run big and they don't carry the things I like in extra smalls. Perhaps they don't realize there a lot of short cyclists. I have a couple of Performance wool jerseys in smalls from a few years ago that do fit well, but it seems like since then, there has been the dreaded size creep.

It looks to me like she's wearing her big brother's or her boyfriend's shorts. I give them (or her depending on how you look at it) a "thumb's down".

I like pants and shorts with dropped waists too - gives me the illusion of actually having hips

it's not the dropped waist that's odd. It's the HA-YOOOOJ baggy legs

Yes I think that too. I like dropped waists. But the circus clown shopping bag legs??
