Not so funny-- sounds like a "look"! It will probably show up on the
runways next year....

p.s. Actually, now that I get to musing about this, maybe those "yore"
costumes aren't as far off as we think....aren't designers' models and
chic young things walking around in very "now" outfits that mix
nineteenth-century skirts, 'twenties jewelry, bustiers (fantasy
out-of-time corsets), generic modern T shirts, traditional Indian
sandals, flower-child crocheted fringed vests, and hats reminiscent of
caps worn by working-class men 400 years ago?

After looking at how some folks today build their 'historical'
costumes, I expect to see 3pc suits made out of denim, worn with
grunge flannel shirts, 80's gel shoes, 70's long hair, and the
occasional body piercing.
