Let me take this post to remind you that variety is the spice of life! Different eras, different countries, different ages - post them all!

Is it just me or is this kid seriously cool? 1960s (I think) in Japan...

Thank you very much jun3machina!

Ladies and gents, you might have already noticed that my pictures are a little guy-heavy. I just personally find some of the fellas clothes a bit more easy adaptable. Like these guys, especially the guy on the left. But there will be more pictures of ladies to come! (Especially if you post them!)

Sometimes the ladies are bit too formal for me....but this lady? Like the belt, love the attitude (circa 1910s).

Whoa! This thread is so B-A. I didn't consider this vintage, but then again... designers do get their inspiration from the one and only Past!
