Is the mob wife trend problematic? | ITV News

Why is 'mob wife winter' being slated from all angles?

The mob wife aesthetic is trending - and it centres around everything that says bold overstated dressing - lots of print, vintage furs, big jewellery and plenty of glamour

Many believe it started as HBO began advertising the 25th anniversary of The Sopranos - the series about an Italian American mobster based in New Jersey. Others think it's a rebellion against minimalist trends

But it's opened up backlash from various corners of the internet.
