Blog post #6
WIth my blog posts, I started with the 1920’s, going all the way to the 1960’s. I didn’t get the chance to talk about the 1970’s, 1980’s, 1990’s, and the 2000’s/2010. I will be berfiely talking about those eras and how fashion all comes back in style in the end.
The 1970s had some of the biggest hits in the fashion industry that we see today. Though it’s not completely different form the 1960’s, they still has some big differences. While the 60s where bigger in colors, the 70s focused more on patterns, and got more scandals. Since, patterns started getting more popular, fashion designers had to look at other countries to see what kind of colors and patterns that they used for their fashion. Most of the countries that fashion designers looked at where third world countries because they used the most patterns in their fashion. Patterns where in, while bright colors where getting less attention. Some bright colors that where still in the picture where yellow, blues, and pinks. Other than that, most women settled for patterns or simple colors.
I had stated earlier that women were getting more scandals with their clothing. Well, during this time period, women and men where getting more comfortable in their bodies, and started showing it off. Some of the most popular outfits that come to mind when thinking about the 70’s is the disco outfits.
Elton John, Diana Ross and Cher are here sporting some of the top fashion items in the 70’s. Cher is showing her skin, and it was okay for females to do that. Women were finally able to show off their bodies and not get judged for it. The 70’s were finally taking a turn in the right direction for women positivity with their bodies.
The only differences where the clothes where getting shorter and bright colors where in. The 80’s had big hair, bold makeup, and bright clothes. The 60’s bright colors came back in fashion for the 80’s fashion, just shorter. Some normal colors were still in style, aka the classy look.
Some of the most iconic looks of the 80s where short shirts for both men and women, and bright colors.
I guess you can say that the 90s also followed that look. The 90s had a lot of similar pieces and statements from the 80s. Bright colors are still in, but the grudge look comes up. Rock and roll took over and the teens had to dress the part. Some classy looks where in too, if your thinking about clueless and the the tv show, Friends. Showing skin was still okay in this time period, as you can tell by the spice girls. By the 90’s fashion was starting to become what we now know as today. This is also the time period where different branches of fashion was becoming normal. There where the jocks, the prep girls, the skater boys, and the nerds. Different types of clothing, fashion, and clicks started to appear and normalized in everyday life. Some of the fashion trends that happened in the 90s is happening and in right now. Crop tops, bright colors, and different patterns all coming together. Though some of the things that are popularized in the 90s, where also popular back in the day when they first came to life.
The 2000s/2010s had the same things the 90s and every other era had. The 2000s was kind of a hot mess after the 90s. The fashion stayed the same, just some things fell out of trend. The only things big and tendy in the 2000s was the electronics coming to life because the fashion basically stayed the same. Now, the 2010s/now is a different story. Newer things started to show up that had put a twist on the fashion today. Some of the things in style are leggings and street wear. Street wear used to be a 90s things because that is when rap started to get big. Wearing big, baggy clothing was in, but now it’s all about tight and big clothing going together to make it trendy. Bright colors are in, and so are pastels and every other color. Not one thing is cool, it’s many things. Something big that just up recently is an E-girl. It’s basically girls being trendy on social media, wearing grudge like clothing. All the fashion that is in style today, is fashion that was in style 10, 20, 30, all the way to 60 years ago. You may not see it at first, but if you think about and look back on some fashion pieces. Most of your mother’s closet are the clothes at are back in style. 
So the final thought that I had came to from writing all these blog post, is that fashion all comes back in style. It doesn’t matter what you like or what you wear, because it’s all going to come back and become trendy again. Fashion never goes away, and neither does the type of style that you are into.
