No one wants to be called cheugy, especially when it comes to clothes. But fashion is constantly evolving, meaning you can’t get too attached to any passing trend. And it looks like a tired few are entering cheugy territory.
I won’t lie to you, some of these hurt. Some saw me through the pandemic. But if you love one of these trends, don’t worry. They’ll inevitably be back. And you can rock whatever you love until kingdom come and look good doing it — cheugy be d*mned. That said, here are some cheugy fashion trends phasing out fast.

It’s time to pack up the zoo sitting in your closet. Although animal prints are relatively timeless, they’re not as trendy as they once were. Instead, try the checkerboard print that people can’t seem to get enough of — quickly, before that’s uncool, too.
The vintage patchwork print is ready to be turned into whatever quilt you’re working on right now. However, you don’t have to fully kiss the ‘70s look goodbye. Closely related psychedelic prints are beginning to fill the hole patchwork will inevitably leave.
