There’s actually a pretty good reason for Instagram’s new pose

Manspreading: that thing we (#notall, et cetera) do where we take up more than our fair share of space during a commute—has inspired a new fashion power pose: #WomanSpreading.

Embraced by some of the world’s leading models, the ‘woman-spread’ allows an outfit to be seen top to bottom, apparently.

Not sure it’ll catch on in menswear, but you never know.
