Clothes of the Future: a fashion forecast from 1930

[cocolicious]

So much in this video was true if you look at the essential points they were making...all of it is in production or planning already

 

[softgrey]

you guys should take a look at a book called Techno Fashion
a garment you wear that functions also as a cell phone? They've been developing items like that already

and NASA makes uniforms out of a material which changes from cool to warm to suit your body temperature..

Nice to see some of these ideas have already been discovered
like for example regards to Coco Chanel making it possible for women to wear daywear in the evening
and also especially where I live, I see the disappearance of skirts to pants

reminds me of some of chayan's stuff actually....

and i also thought of MJ when i saw the shoes...
...

thanks for posting!...

Awesome video! Thanks for sharing. that's seriously one of the coolest/most interesting things I've seen in a long time. And they weren't too far-fetched either. Karma!

Hahaha, I loved this. They had a rather rediculous, and sad, outlook for the men. That thing looked like a spacesuit. The only thing I found remotely fashionable were those shoes.
Atleast they got something right.

the clothes wouldnt look out of place in Galliano...
i also noticed the shoes they were bang on point very marc jacobs, he probably saw this video. I think fashion follows "politics" i.e. reflecting whether we live in a liberal or conservative era rather than technology and i think thats where they got it wrong.. especially for men im sure theyd be very confused after watching a mens fashion show lol

LMAO, love that video. The quotes are a killer.
"One dress will consist of transparent net. The net apparently to catch the males."
"In AD 2000 we'll be having a ~hair raising~ time."
"An electric belt will adapt the body to climatic changes."
"The (something) woman of tomorrow, OH SWISH, will move in the atmosphere that's scientifically kept at the right temperature."
"The future bride in a wedding dress of glass."
"An electric headlight to help to her find an honest man."
"As for him, if he matters at all, there won't be any shaving, colors or ties, or pockets. He'll be fitted with a telephone, a radio, and containers for coins, keys and candy for cuties."

LMAO, love it.

I wonder who the designers were behind forcasting the future? The first one with the sleeve looked very Schiaparelli.

 

[oh so vicious!]

1930 jesus christ! that was so funny! & very interesting. The future bride in a wedding dress of glass made laugh aswell

The commentary was funny and of course the whole thing was dated, but some of the predictions were indeed accurate...pants everywhere (it's only just now that skirts are being worn more widely again), cellphones, the shoes, etc. Great video!
