I love to play a kind of game when
watching a "historical costume" film or TV show I call: Find all the
things in the costumes that give away the year the film was made.
Hairstyles and makeup of the leading actors is a dead giveaway. If you
want to see a costume designer's original intent: check out some
background extra.
Start watching those old films and have fun!

giggle, snerk. I've done that - same with still photographs. Have you
watched an episode of Classic Star Trek?
Also, go back and watch movies you thought were really cool/scary/ whatever
when you were a younger with your kids. Mine thought Jaws was lame, Psycho
wasn't scary and the Trek clothes were lame too.
