I’m mostly trying to think of mostly benign or positive fads, even if they might have inspired some folks to do wacky or dangerous things on the extreme edges of the fad. I’m thinking stuff like beanie babies or bedazzling stuff.

I personally want to see some of the fashion fads from the 70’s come back, like bell-bottoms.

    They are back! I’ve seen young people wearing them!

    And they’re not quite as low as the old ones, I know because I had been wearing my old pair from high school but they finally wore out so I bought a new pair and I’m no longer in danger of showing off the old whale tail.

    They call them flared leggings now though.

      Oh snap! You just made my day! I checked online and the flared leggings are exactly what I was referring to! Thank you so much 💚

      Any suggestions on where to get them?

        Do you have Ardene or Garage where you live? They’re sort of fast fashion type stores like Forever 21. Garage is definitely better quality (and fit, in my opinion) than Ardene but it’s also noticeably more expensive. I suggest Garage if there’s a sale.
