No longer in fashion, but you like them - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I will admit that I do not own any clothes like this, but clothes I like seeing people wear are knitted sweaters and those sleeveless sweaters - a bit like the things that Frasier wears (in fact, that's probably why I like those sort of clothes, since Frasier is one of my favourite programmes.) Naturally, I don't know anybody who would be seen dead in a sleeveless sweater or a knitted one - does anyone here besides me like them and/or wear them - or know someone who does?

I recently purchased this 1980s denim skirt, and of course, it is out of fashion, but I do not care, it looks good on me and that is what matters...

i can't figure out which season you're supposd to wear sleeveless sweaters in. as far as temperature is concerned they look terribly uncomfortable.

Sharop · 03-26-2005, 08:18 PM

^ They're probably best for the winter. One of the boys in my Drama group has to wear a knitted sleeveless sweater for his character. If he buys it, I might ask him if I can have it when we've put on our play, since I can't imagine he'd want to keep it.

I've never followed the fashion.I wear what I feel comfortable in,and what looks good.

Mijada · 03-26-2005, 08:26 PM

I still have a bunch of flannel shirts that I bought in like 1993. I like them and wear them now and then.

Belair · 03-26-2005, 08:29 PM

I still wear denim pedalpushers,and I have a black pair as well.I thought they were really unfashionable until I saw Kate Beckinsale wear her black pair three times; to the MTV movie awards,to TRL,to the Kids Choice Awards,so I figured there still acceptable.I dont wear mine with big chunky stilettos like she does though.

My pair is identical to that ^

I still like shoulder pads!

I wear something until it wears out. I have a shirt I bought at Wal-Mart in like, 1993, that I still wear.

A lot of the stuff I wear doesn't really have a "fashion." It's simple and will be around for a long time. Besides, everything old is new again, so who cares?

Exactly, I had a lot of really cute tops that I bought while I was in High School back in the late 1980s..and (what the hell) I still wear them, even though they are almost 20 years old!

But no one wears knitted sweaters or the sweaters without sleeves?

I'm thinking kind of like the ones that Alex Keaton used to wear, and the types they put on the boys in shows that they are trying to portray as "geeks."

I think those sweater vests are still very much in style. Maybe not for the teenage crowd but I've seen men in their 30's and 40's wearing them. They are always featured in the Lands End and LL Bean catalogs I get each month. I think they look very nice and would love to see more people wearing them.

I think bell bottoms on men are quite cute

Clothes that are no longer in fashion, but I still like them. Gee, that would be everything in my closet. Almost everything I wear. I was given a hard time by my dad's girlfriend who was criticizing how I wear my pendants. I'll wear three pendants at once and she said it was "out of fashion". I just kindly told her I don't concern myself with going along with the crowd. I'm bascially a walking time capsule. Lost in the 1960s and 1980s forever.

I used to have one, but it became too small. I declare that it shrunk and that I did not get bigger.
