I don't know if they were ever technically in fashion, but I loved the trend of cutting the seam of the legs of your jeans and sewing in a panel of funky material and making them flared too. Circa 2001  good old 6th form days |

I love this era too! My new glasses are rather retro and 50s style. I'd love a rocker billy skirt or dress with loads of netting underneath. |

I love ladies 50's and 60cs look with a slight moddern twist.
I think the it makes curves stand out and therefore easy on the eye.
Men should wear nice crops ironed shirts and look smart. Something I should do more. |

Yeah I know it was a 70s thing too but I think the jeans were baggier in 2001 lol I was a bit of a mosher and we had a habit of wearing hugely baggy jeans with optional chains  |

"I'll have a look on there, just my huge tummy doesn't help "
I've got a huge tummy but I love my rockabilly style dresses. I have 2 at the moment and wore one at the weekend to the wedding. Everyone commented on how nice it looked I wore it with a petticoat underneath to make the skirt stand out.
I got mine off eBay. |

I'd love to see an end to this dreadful style some men seem to have adopted for wearing skinny suits that look one size to small......
It just looks ridiculous

Ah yes those carefree days when it was hip to wear unisex clothing and it was OK for guys to wear cut-off denim short-shorts in the summer,,, |
