Styles of Clothing

***Valandil*** · 08-13-2005, 10:26 AM

A thread to discuss various styles of clothing... particularly whatever is current or appears to be new.

I've noticed a certain combination about three times just the past 2-3 days. Now - maybe I only just noticed it because each instance was on a fairly attractive young woman who was walking down the street as I was driving by, but I also thought the color combination was striking and noticed that I saw one after the other...

It was a dark red (just barely 'dark') sleeveless top with black pants. I didn't take note in retrospect, but I expect the shoes were black - even though it's before Labor Day (is that OK - or is it only the inverse that was long considered "wrong" - the white shoes AFTER Labor Day?).

Anyway - I don't know if I'll be a big-time poster in this thread (what - a GUY starting a thread like this!!!

), but I thought I'd comment on this and see what came of it.

There is a line from a Flemish song that always comes to my mind with such topics and discussions: "De mode loopt in kringetjes, die haalt ons wel weer in. (Fashion goes in circles, it'll eventually catch up with us again.) Which is indeed true as I've found out in the last few years. There are motives and clothes in the stores now that my mother would have worn when she was my age. I somehow find that very amusing.

I have expressed my astonished curiosity in private before, but now I will put it to everyone:

What type of twisted, sick person decided that little Japanese girls should wear sailor outfits as their school uniform!?
