So we watched a TAPE (yes a tape) of some old Sonny & Cher performances. (I know I know ). Granted the show took place in the 70's but some of the fashion that was supposed to be hot was NOT. Cher wore BLUE EYE SHADOW (ugh) and a shimmering GOLD dress. Now I could be wrong but I feel makeup should compliment what a lady is wearing and her makeup DID NOT.
In another scene she had on a white dress with some kind of olive floral patern. THe sleeves were very poofy. over the dress she had on an olive bra looking thing.
what were we thinking back then?

Re: Classic Disaster
Fri, April 28, 2006 - 11:50 AMHey, it was the 70's -- back then the fashion philosophy was "Anything goes!"
They were having fun, at least. Now we don't really see the fun of wearing icky poyester or weird color combinations.
But the great irony of fashion is that we will look back at today and say "What were we thinking?" about certain trends. That's why they're called trends, after all. Classics stand the test of time...but they can be kinda boring. Why not mix it up?
Fashion is about living in the moment... ; )
