Subject: Backwards Clothing

Written By: JamieMcBain on 02/28/06 at 8:57 am

Anyone remember the short lived fad, that was wearing wear clothes backwards?

It was really big once, thanks to Kriss Kross.  Come to think of it, whatever happened to them?

I used to always wear cardigans backwards...it was a big thing in my college, to button down the back and wear a big neklace with it.
Not very Kriss-Kross-y.

I think that trend was a little before my time but I've heard about it. Sounds pretty dumb to me. ::)

The memory lives on in the wearing of backward baseball caps.

It was ever so slightly before my time but I still remember it, from going to the mall and seeing teenagers dressed in backwards clothing when I was in nursery school or Pre-K, about.

Yeah I think that trend peaked when I was about 3/4 years old but I'm really not sure. I dont think I remember seeing anybody doing it or not but it certainly looks silly.

Thank God I went to a school that required uniforms, or else everyone and their brother would have been walking around looking like blind people that got dressed in a dark closet.



One of the stupidest clothing fads I can remember.

Even that's a token 1990s thing, although occasionally I'll see some loser do it.

This reminds me of a David Spade "Hollywood Minute" feature on Saturday Night Live, circa 1992. His advice to the Kriss Kross boys? "It's a short ride, guys. Save some money."  ;D

I also think New Kids on the Block wore their big baggy jeans backwards c. 1992 while gyrating.
