An excursion into the terrible trends of the past: from a "limping" skirt to a dog accessory
By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/an-excursion-into-the-terrible-trends-of-the-past-from-a-limping-skirt-to-a-dog-accessory.htmlYears later, some fashion trends can cause real horror. We decided to recall the most terrible trends of the XX century: a "limping" skirt, pins in the cheeks, men's overalls, colorful leggings and 18 more terrible trends of each decade of the last century.
1900s: corsets
Freedom from corsets was a real breakthrough for women of those years — long live the opportunity to breathe freely!
1910s: "limping" skirt
However, it was necessary to suffer not only because of corsets - the famous "limping" skirt caused more than one injury among fashionistas.
1920s: bathing dress
Freedom, including in fashion, is becoming more and more, but rather strange wardrobe items continue to appear. How do you like, for example, the idea of a bathing... dress?
1940s: micro-caps
Micro-hats in the 40s looked very specific, and the absurdity of the appearance was added by the perky feathers sticking out from under the crown.
1950s: white gloves
Not only strange, but also impractical!
1960s: printed tights and baby doll dresses
Tights with crazy geometric prints, from which it hurts the eyes, in the 60s, every self-respecting fashionista got.
Baby doll dresses in the era of "swinging London" became a symbol of their time. But, you must admit, this iconic style in reality looked good except on the skinny Twiggy.
1970s: knitted vests, men's overalls and pins in the cheeks
The 70s were marked, perhaps, by the maximum number of crazy trends: knitted "granny" vests…
...men's overalls with bell-bottomed trousers…
...and an attribute of the nascent punk style — creepy-looking pins... in the cheeks!
1980s: knitted leg warmers, headbands, MC Hammer style pants and sweaters on the shoulders
Only the 80s can "argue" with the previous decade - knitted leggings with bandages are here for you (hello, boom for aerobics!)…
...futuristic pants in the style of the ultra-popular artist MC Hammer…
...and colored sweaters that "good" boys wore exclusively tied on their shoulders.
1990s: colored glasses, hats with flowers, long-sleeved T-shirts and a popcorn top
In the 90s, rebellious grunge literally burst into fashion and world culture, which brought with it a lot of strange trends: colored rectangular glasses that make any face several times wider…
..."grandma's" hats with flowers…
...t-shirts "2 in 1"…
...and "fluted" tops, called "popcorn tops" among Western fashionistas.
2000s: plush suits, low-rise jeans, ugg boots with a mini skirt, baseball caps and a doggy accessory
In the "noughties" grunge was replaced by ruthless glamour. And today we try not to remember how we sported in plush costumes…
...jeans with a frighteningly low fit…
...ugg boots paired with mini skirts…
...and baseball caps.
And the poor little dogs, with the light hand of the "queen of glamour" Paris Hilton, who have become the real fashion "accessories"?!
