Subject: Good-bye bellbottoms/Hello straight legs

Written By: Andrew on 3/16/2001 at 8:54 p.m.

So what do y'all think of the straight legs comeback? To be honest with you, I actually bought a pair yesterday for the hell of it, and I really like them. 80's clothing is making a SERIOUS comeback if you haven't noticed already. I don't know if any of you have seen Fashion Television or Fashion File lately, but these shows have been showcasing A LOT of 80's fads. Remember those sleveless shirts that guys and girls wore that were made out of kind of a foamy material, and they had zippers alongside the shoulders? (A lot of bands like New Edition, the Jets and Menudo wore them I believe) Well I saw those too in the guys department in pink and purple of all colours!! I would have bought one, but I don't think the public would have been ready for them yet (LOL). Although I do love 70's clothing, it's really cool to see the 80's finally making a comeback. Check out Janet Jackson's new video "All For You" if you don't believe me. She samples some of her 80's rhythm in the song, and sports some leather and denim in the video. With all this 80's craze, I don't believe that we'll see any acid washed coming back anytime soon though.

It's about time that 80's fashions came back in style but when will they come to the stores such as Bi-Way in Canada or Zellers?

Well, I've never been accused of having a great mind, but I graciously accept the compliment
