Crazy Old Outfits - Way Back When

#1 Postby Janice » Mon Apr 23, 2007 7:01 pm

Describe an outfit you wore many years ago that would be a riot today if you wore it in public.

When I was young, my swimming suit with skirt, nose plugs and rubber bathing cap. Some had flowers on them.
My wide leg hard jeans rolled up on the bottom, flannel plaid shirt, sneakers and a kerchief at the neck.

You're killing me Janice! First the old car post, and now this one. ARRRGGHH!! OK, that would have to be the "Dynasty"-inspired, classic 80's dress suit with shoulder pads wider than anything Joan Crawford could have ever imagined. I'd thank you for the memories, but.... :-D

A few weeks ago I was cleaning out my closet, and I found my old "Member's Only" jacket from about 1985! Nedless to say it's no where near fitting anymore!

Oh, I forgot all about these. Remember the thick, thick black tights you wore like panty hose under skirts.....
