What did you wear or sport in the 90's? The Grunge Look? The Baggy Pants Look? Tounge Ring or anything else?

I did none of that, i had rebok Pumps in the early nineties, and thought I was so Cool. I also wore Cords a lot.  In the late nineties I wore Old Navy clothes, mainly performance Fleece and cargo pants.

Tommy Hilfiger is an infamous racist and i would look upon the bearers of his logo no differently than i would of someone who was wearing a shirt that says "Ku Klux Klan" on it.

"If i had of known black people would be wearing my clothes, i never would have made them in the first place."

yeah ok jess so what if he didnt say that?

i'm sure he's very acceptable of other people's origins. after all, he does supply underage asians with quality jobs under excellent conditions and reasonable pay am i right?
don't answer that f*cking question..

i bet you were one of those poster girls for the gap and other garbage like that. you probably wouldn't wear anything except stuff like that, just to join in on the 'trends' and be cool. yeah i know a lot of girls like that, some guys too. if you weren't like that, then why would you support him?

even if that is slander, he deserves it. he is a racist. that comment was most likely put out there to be an effective way of expressing the truth through a lie.

anyways i hope you are proud of defending and sticking up for mr hilfiger... we sure can't have the reputations of such godly figures destroyed right?

good job. i commend you. and i'm sure mr hilfiger would appreciate it.

So are you done ranting for the night? I never said I supported him, I just thought you would like to know that he didn't say it. As for being a poster girl for Gap and such, not likely! All my clothes come from Factory 2 U and such discount stores as that. As for your spiked hair and black clothes, isn't that a trend too? Or do you think you're actually "original"?

you're right you never said you supported him. most people would have the sense to leave it be for the sole reason that he deserves that sh*t

here's an example for you.
a newspaper headline reads a quote from osama bin laden that says "F*ck americans, i hate those dirty bastards. They all deserve to die."
if a low key article a while later said that he didn't say that... would you defend him from slander in a conversation?
don't answer that f*cking question.

you know damn well he deserves to be treated like that.

if someone forces underage asian children to work under awful conditions for longe hours at a couple cents an hour, do you think they have any care for that race?

i doubt mr hilfiger even regards those workers as people.

Okay, let's get back to the nineties fashion and stop talking about Tommy Hilfiger.  I don't like his style anyway.  During the nighties, I was in high school and college.  I remember in college I did have the "grunge" look.  I loved to wear a flannel shirt, a T-shirt underneath, and jeans.  It fit the college atmosphere.  Then in the late nineties, I did have the "Rachel" haircut.  I loved it.  But then I grew tired of it and wanted a different look because that seemed like the only hairstyle around.  I also remember in the early nineties, everyone in my high school started wearing their hair down instead of up like in the eighties.  Everyone had straight bangs that touched their brows and long hair and that was in for awhile.  In the early nineties, people also wore these chiffon blouses and skirts.  Those were in.  Oh, and do you remember around 1993-1994, when everyone in Beverly Hills 90210 cut their hair short.  The haircut that Kelly wore was also very fashionable back then.  Right now, the hair is still flat and mid length hair seems to be in.  However, I want to try something different and have layered bangs like in the eighties.  Does anyone think that's a good idea?

Very nice summary of 90's fashion trends for females(I am a guy but I did notice some of the trends females wore back then.) Anyway about the layered bangs you should go for it if you want to. You seem like a person who gets tired of a trend on then moves onto something else. Personally I would like to see the 80's come back again a little bit. I think the 80's trends are a little awkward for the time we live in now though.

i completely agree with you.

i hate all these little bltch preps who think they're cool and better than everyone else because they wear nothing but 80$ Gap khakis and shirts that say something like "American Eagle Football 1993" for whatever reason.  People who think they're better because they have more cash to waste on promoting child labour..

I don't think designer clothes are the only thing in the world to have been made through exploitation. In fact, I'm confident that 90% of houses in the developed world will contain a long list of things that have been made through amoral means or by unethical companies. Coffee usually comes from 3rd world countries and the farmers are paid a ridiculously low wage, cosmetics and pharmeceuticals can be linked to animal testing, Nestle very notoriously sold powdered milk for babies with no nutritional value whatsoever until quite recently...I could type away all night, if I wanted to. My point is that it's very difficult to claim the moral high ground in terms of ethical shopping if you live in the developed world, and I frankly don't think anyone on this thread could do so (perhaps I'm wrong).

As for the notion that all people who wear fashionable/trendy/designer clothes (pick your word) are 'conceited vain teenyboppers', I've never been one for judging a person by the clothes they wear. And seeing as this particular round of vitriol was sparked because someone said that the grunge look makes people look like 'homeless lumberjacks' - isn't it strange that people have chosen to counterattack a sweeping statement about people and clothes with an equally sweeping statement about people and clothes?

I'm quite confident that I'm going to get at least one reply consisting of lots of verbal abuse to this post. That's fair enough; people have to write what they think it's best to write (even if they just end up looking slightly stupid). But before that happens, I'm not going to return to this thread because I've said what I want to say and I'm not going to argue the point with anyone. We all have our opinions, and a right to express them.
