My sister works in film and loves period clothing.
Right now she’s working on a project that took place in the early 2000s.
That was when I was in high school and I know the fashion too well.
All the girls wanted to be trashy ass Paris Hilton and all the guys dressed like Eminem.
It was a difficult time, for sure.
Purposely exposed thongs, babydoll shirts, super low rise jeans,
So terrible.
That’s embarrassing.
When did you grow up?
How was the fashion?
Are you ashamed?
I still dress like a 2000 skater/metal head
I wore parachute pants sometimes in junior high. They were ridiculous. With like a thousand zippers. The pair I remember was too small and tight on me as well. It was dark blue I believe. COuldn’t find a pic that accurately reflected the absurdity of the pair I wore.
Edit: Something like this except blue and less wavy because they were so tight:
That purposely exposed thongs was the best, as a boy growing up in high school it was amazing to look at hahaha
Some of those pants had a fake thong built in so you could wear more comfortable panties and still look trashy.
It was an interesting time.
I grew up in the late 50’s, early 60’s. pop beads, hoop skirt slips. T-shirts were new for women and ridiculed.
That’s really cool, @PinCushion.
Also a very interesting fashion time in history.
Whatever I wear is awesome.
Everyone else just needs to deal.
i have a similar thing in my current wardrobe
i did my short hair up in tight hellraiser style bunches all over like a grid and wore a horrible mismatch goth skirt which looked a bit stupid
that was my only ever fashion mistake i actually regret
i thought i looked so cute also in a gnr t shirt with a waistcoat
i think waistcoats were pretty terrible but i have a military style one i like now, completely - stand and deliver, your money or your life
I was a teen in the 80s. We used to tight roll our jeans. And the girls all had big hair. And I had a mullet.
I heard the mullets came back but were called scullets.
Hahaha so true. Even in grade 8 this was the trending
The ladies all wanted the belly button dangly ring
I was a teenager in the 90s. I was all over the map.
Some days I dressed like a rapper, some days like a rocker, some days preppy.
I had bell bottom jeans, overalls, regular jeans, various types of sweaters and shirts. I had one of those rapper suits made of denim, it was black with stuff on it.
Here is an example of one type of thing I would wear.
I’m not ashamed but I look back and laugh at myself
wearing skateboarding wrist guards to school and then getting yelled at by a teacher saying i am making fun of people with arthritis. conpletely different type of wrist thing but he was stuck on it
I am definitely ashamed of my high school days “fashion” or should I say middle school days…
Me and all my friends dressed emo😂
My sister is close to your age and dressed emo in high school.
She’s tried to destroy the evidence.
But I still have a few pictures.
I get second hand embarrassment from them.
It’s an unflattering phase.
ROFL. I still have pics too… but I think it’s hilarious
Let me see if I can find one
@anon61987434, that picture looks so similar to all my sister’s.
Hilarious.
@TomCat, that hair! Oh, the 80s!
