Trends We’d Like To Forget
We embrace everything fashion. That’s why we are in the fashion industry; we simply never tire of flipping through magazines, browsing the collections online or tracking trends. But every once in while a trend or two comes along that leaves us scratching our head, gasping or hysterically laughing.
This month we are highlighting a few of those head scratching moments from the last several years to the last several decades. With the economy in the toilette, why not prescribe a little lighthearted laughter….at someone else’s expense of course.
Mc Hammer Style Parachute Pants. No, we never ‘touched this’. In a nutshell: too unflattering, fugly and downright ridiculous. And the worst part: they are still making them! In fact my dear old Dad just purchase a black & white pair for my unsuspecting stepmother. She is still in a state of nauseam in case you were wondering.
Spandex. Need I say more?
Stacked flip-flops. My daughter gets mad when I use this word, but I HATE these clunky and cheap looking versions of the summertime staple. As if the black molten rock offenders aren’t bad enough,they make them in white and pastels, which get all scuffed up as well as stained from the oils in your feet. Gross. Gnarly. Totally detest. Hate.
How low can you go low rise jeans. No matter if you are Gisele or Keira, the low rise trend of the 2000’s flatter no-body, no way, no how. Granted millions of bucks were made and millions of pairs were sold, but the reality is, muffin top became a household word and a word I’d personally rather forget.
