Fashion Looks Coming Back from the 80s, 20s and Beyond

— January 8, 2010 — Marketing
Over the last 8 months, vintage-style editorials have been making their way into magazines. Fashion issues already released in the new year show these flashback looks could continue well into 2010.

People wanting to rock fashions from decades gone by are no longer satisfied pillaging consignment stores—after all, vintage shopping became so popular, it’s hard to find a place where that’s not picked over—so they are turning to designers who are churning out patterns and prints from the past. To ensure it comes across that these looks are, in fact, meant to look like they were inspired by your granny’s wardrobe, magazines are introducing these old-new looks in vintage-style editorials.
