Subject: "California Designers Put a '90s Spin on '60s Hits"

Don't show this to any '90s Kid (TM) cultists. It'll break their hearts.

This is an old article from 1991 about upcoming summer trends...yes, a lot of early '90s styles were actually influenced by the '60s.

Yes, the 90s style was very much influenced by the 60s/70s. Trends come and go every 20/30 years.

How long has that been going on, though? Aren't we going to run out of things to draw influence from eventually?  ::)

In the 1920s, there was a lot of nostalgia for the 1890s or "Gay Nineties" as they were known.  Nostalgia has been going on as long as there has been pop culture and while trends do come and go, each generation has a fresh take on them.

I've heard there was nostalgia in "The Gay Nineties" for the early decades of the 19th century too.

That's actually kind of surprising to me. I always thought of the 1920s as a very revolutionary period.

The 1920s was actually the end result of a revolutionary period, what some historians call The Third Great Awakening and the progressive era, roughly about 1890-1920, during this era Victorian values were heavily challenged, reformers enacted vast social change(including the right for women to vote, anarchism, Prohibition, child labor laws, ect). This period pushed a Social Gospel philosophy that eventually became the basis for The New Deal.

We're always influenced by the more modern aspects of previous decades. The 80s were the first decade to recycle musical styles from previous eras.

It most definitely was not, in the '40s there was a trad jazz revival, in the '50s a folk revival, in the '60s many songs were influenced by '20s music hall(including When I'm 64 by The Beatles).

Heck early '70s glam rock IS '50s style rock n roll with more outrageous costumes.

I remember owning a pair of these mega-sized flower dangling earrings and wide hairbands back then.
