Exploring the CRAZIEST Thing About Historical Fashion Trends!

Let's explore one of the WACKIEST things about historical fashion: that it keeps repeating! Everyone knows the saying "everything old is new again." But the craziest thing about historical fashion trends is how many times they repeat themselves--not only in the past hundred years of fashion, but over centuries and centuries of time! In this video, I talk about my favorite repeated fashion trends, the wacky things that just keep coming back in style time and time again. From the disco-wearing courtesans of 16th century Venice to the false rumps that could make both Sir Mix A Lot and Louis XVI swoon, these trends are sometimes hilarious, always fabulous, and worth giving a second glance. List of resources and references is too large for this box, but if you'd like more information on any of these subjects, please let me know and I can direct you in the comments.
