About a year ago, the world’s Instagram feeds were peppered with one very distinctive selfie trend: ‘fingermouthing‘.
As its name suggests, the pose involved dangling fingers in front of the mouth, with the aim of looking carelessly seductive and candid as well as framing the face.
Naturally, it was a hit among various Kardashians and plenty of other ~Instagram influencers~.
However, it seems fingermouthing has now been eclipsed — and its successor is perhaps even more confusing.
Elle writer Julie Schott has dubbed the new Instagram trend du jour the 'Bambi pose'. Yes. As in the animated fawn whose mother's untimely death traumatised a generation of children.
The uncomfortable-looking sitting position is characterised by the poseur's calves being curled and tucked demurely beneath their thighs.
Just like a little baby deer... with a little more bikini action.
Regardless of its origins, this pose is suddenly popping up everywhere.
And honestly, we're developing a leg cramp just looking at some of these contortions.
