Your favourite fashion era from the past

[Keith Oates]

Not if they now stretch around the Tummy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like the late 50's styles. knee length dresses with high heeled shoes and wide brimed hats for the ladies, and double brested suits with brimed hats for the gents. I have a thing about hats.

Am I seriously the only girl to have contributed to a clothes thread???

Well!!! I do LOVE the 1920s, having loved House of Elliot back in the 90s. I do also like the 50s, having a decent pair of hips to swish skirts with. But the 60s kind of did fashion best, I think!

Roman times.

Slave girls in togas, mmmmmmmmm!

 

[Dayvo]

Raquel Welch-like stone-age women.

It's all year round here in the North-East! On a Friday and Saturday night, anyway!

Can picture it now a distant memory, -10 and you can`t get moved for ar$e & t!ts

 

[Cathryn]

Oh I get it! It's not about clothes at all. It's a historical 'girls in lycra' thread.

Any era where you wore a collar and tie to go cycling!

What's the difference between plus fours n plus twos ??

 

[Hover Fly]

2 inches. Plus 2s had 2" of excess cloth below the knee as, opposed to close fitting breeks, plus 4s had 4". Golfers went up to plus 6s at one time.

The 60s-shaggadelic baby, yeah!

 

[got-to-get-fit]

Right now!
Seriously have women ever been so openly sexual and dressed to flirt as they are now?
I also quite liked all the ladies doing the power dressing thing in the eighties......think i just liked the idea of being dominated

 

[Emu]

Despite me being quite unfeminine I'd liked to have been a flapper. I love the 1920's fashion and music.

 

[trustysteed]

mini-dresses in the 80's when i was a teenager.

...on the ladies i mean....the ladies....
