I feel like maybe around 2012 the whole concept of eras died.
Like I can clearly visualize items/people/media from the 60s/70s/80s/90s/00’s, but everything is homogenized now and there’s really no “style of the time” either. I think everything from 2013+ will just be remembered as a malaise era, if anything. Maybe the style of the 2050’s will be post cyberpunk apocalyptic? I have no idea.
I’ve been thinking about exactly this lately, and I’m open to the possibility that I’m just getting old and just falling into the “everything new is all the same crap!”
But… Imagine what you would wear to a 70s themed party, how about 80s, 90s?
I’m confident three distinct styles popped in your head.
But what about a 2010s party? Sure, some trends come and go, but I don’t feel like the 10s party would look much different from a 2020 or 2000s party.
Feel free to tell me if I’m just old.
You’re just old.
Doesn’t take much to convince me of that!
Hey we’re all old here, ain’t no shame in the aging game.
