The vilified linchpin of millennial and Y2K fashion the skinny jean might be on its way to a comeback.

Google searches for skinny jeans were up 50% year over year , but still well off their 2009 peak.

Analyst: Skinny jeans could start appearing in stores more widely by this summer , but could start returning to shelves closer to the fall.

Many shoppers never stopped wearing skinny jeans, and with the breakneck pace that trends move in the age of social media, fashion cycles can be resurrected before they're even dead. "The denim closet really should have all varieties of denim. It really is about what you're wearing, what your mood is, and people still wear skinny today ," said Gass . "So keep your loose, keep your baggie. Everything right now goes.".
