What a great photo, Krish- so cool. Look at the scarves, and the slouchy, baggy trousers... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspiration-1988-flash-back#post-871845 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 21:21:31 +0000 krishnidoux 871845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wonder... was it that pple had more money to spend on fashion back then? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspiration-1988-flash-back#post-871820 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 21:04:08 +0000 Raisin 871820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very interesting!

So interesting. I keep on saying the '80s were fab! Here it is in action. Literally. </p> <p>Style went downhill in the '90s and we are still recovering. (Don't shoot me Rae and Diana for saying that!). It's just that things got overly casual then and it stuck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspiration-1988-flash-back#post-871694 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 18:44:18 +0000 Tina 871694@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Re the last picture, I wonder some times if there is not enough of a sense of shame in our society anymore:-( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspiration-1988-flash-back#post-871488 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 16:10:51 +0000 texstyle 871488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a jean jacket JUST like that guy in front - it fits me about the same (not flattering). I just keep it for sentimental reasons. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspiration-1988-flash-back#post-871413 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 15:16:16 +0000 Sarah A 871413@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very interesting.

Apparently my mouth is still open in shock as to what people are wearing in the last photo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspiration-1988-flash-back#post-871204 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 11:38:45 +0000 Anonymous 871204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such cool looks! You're right, if only everyone were more style aware these days. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspiration-1988-flash-back#post-871195 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 11:29:57 +0000 Ingunn 871195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very cool! A lot of stylish 80's outfits indeed. I remember loving the haircut that the young man in front has, I always had a soft spot for that look:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspiration-1988-flash-back#post-871187 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 11:22:53 +0000 krishnidoux 871187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I received this historical picture on my FB - deputes fighting back against cuts in the social system in Quebec in 1988, taking it to the streets.</p> <p>My first thought was, What a cool crowd! (for the era)... every body in this is dressed in the latest fashion. I don't know if we could say this today...</p> <p>Wanted to share it...</p> <p>ETA: pictures of the rebelling crowds in Quebec from last year (protesting against student fees raises). What a difference! </p>
