What decade had the worst fashion?

to me the 90s had to be the WORST.. 80s at a close second

everyone looked like a farmer, soccer mom , gym teacher or alvin from the chipmunks

I didn't think anything could look worse than the 1970s as far as clothes go but the 1990s had them beat. Bell bottoms were ugly as hell but at least they were tight above the knee. The 1990s and on up to this very day, has those big ass legs all the way down and what's worse, is the ass sags like it's got 20 pounds of shit weighing it down. Then women started wearing one of the ugliest fads of the 1970s again, hip huggers. Also, in the 1990s, a lot of women stopped wearing the sexy spiked skinny heels and started wearing heels that were blocked like men's boots instead of women's and the toes were squared. They looked like big ass Frankenstein shoes. Women also stopped wearing as much makeup as they previously had and started wearing more "natural" light colored makeup. barf And women's hair at the time, a lot of them started wearing that stringy flat hair like the 1970s.

As for best fashion, it would be the 1980s. It was a lot like another previous decade that had sharp clothes, the 1940s, except the 1980s even expanded and made it look even more larger than life with big hair and lots of whorish looking makeup. The goal a woman should strive to achieve is to look like a hooker and there were some whores in the 1980s, I tell ya. And wild and outrageous hair was in. Individuality was big in the 1980s and people were wild as hell and flaunting it. Also, men into glam was big too. Men looked just as much a whore as the women did. Yes, most definately, the 1980s were the best in fashion.

I'm with whoever said the 70s, with the 90s as a close second.

Almost every outfit I see from the 1970s is just a big eyesore to me, and I remember during the 90s, seeing a lot of the stuff people wore and and being like : neutral .

This is so funny to me! lol

We had "Throwback Thursday" at our school today, and I wore one of my Granny's leisure suits from the 70s: double-knit polyester patchwork bell-bottoms. lol

I've changed my clothes, or I'd take a picture.

I would have to say the 70s. Just dreadful.

Men weren't even required to have muscle back then. Just be hairy and wafish.

And good god the 70s hair disbelief

Even the Lord of the Rings cartoon ("The HObbit") that came out back then

had Gandalf and all the other characters sporting bigass 70s hair. disbelief

The 80s were pretty dreadful in the middle. And the 2000's were dreadful in the beginning.

I think any decade were men's hair is allowed to grow long and wind-swept looking is dreadful.

Or where it becomes ok for women to wear shoulder pads. That's just dreadful.

I loved the early 00's though. I live short hair on men and pixie cuts on chicks. boxed



You're a real fucker. You act like you own this place--ParanoidAndroid <-- about as witty as this princess gets! lol
I hope everyone pays more attention to Sags posts--sweething mushy

Jesus weeps disbelief

and the shiny shirts..... I blame WACK ASS ED HARDY FOR THAT CRAP

I don't get the hate against the 90's (at least since 1995) and the 00's. During those years, (adult + 25 years old) people FINALLY started to dress like they wanna do arrow RANDOMLY

The 95-10 years have been the anti-fashion years...about fuckin time...

mad I was a little girl in the late 80s to early 90s, so I really didn't like that period of time. Being the only girl in the house, I was the dress up doll. In the 90s when polka dots were hot, I wore tons of outfits with polka dots. Matter of fact, there is a dress I HATE HATE HATE from that period of time that my family swears was the "most adorable thing" I've ever worn. Well it itched like crazy thanks to those wacky petticoats under the dress. I itched and squirmed like crazy the entire time I wore it to a wedding.

Then, there were those ugly sweaters for kids in the 90s. The ones with dogs and fruit and sunglasses and....ugh...barf I liked plain color sweaters. Of course, I was seven and nobody listened. "You're a girl, and girls should wear prints!" Feh. The other side of the 90s was actually okay with me. I wish I'd given in to the fashions a little more. When I was able to pick my clothes, that's when I gained a lot of weight and wasn't able to wear the cutest things until I got to be abiout 13 when it was proper for me to wear stuff from the Junior's section. And even then, well...I really didn't give in to the trends.

The late 80s were an eyesore to me slightly because I barely remember what I wore. I DO remember this one trend with neon paint on jeans. I never liked that and refused to wear those jeans whenever people bought a pair. The only thing I can remember going ga ga over was this pair of white high-tops I had with rhinestone hearts in them. I spent hours staring into the shiny parts. lol
