The Final Boss Of TikTok Aesthetics: Is Mob Wife Glamour A Psyop?

The Final Boss Of TikTok Aesthetics: Is Mob Wife Glamour A Psyop?

Another day another seemingly innocuous trend borne from TikTok style videos - this week Ione and Gina are using mob wife glamour to get into the nitty gritty of hyper specific aesthetics. Is mob wife glamour a PR move by HBO for The Soprano's 25th Anniversary? Or a fast fashion ploy to shift some coats during the February sales? And why are we all, after all this time, still aspiring to be someone's wife? Join the two leopard print aficionados on deciding whether or not this resurgence of gaudy glamour is a good or bad thing for the girlies.
