Worst Trend of 2004...

[Fashionista101]

What would you say the worst trend of 2004 was?

I would say, UGGs, I have two pairs because they are comfortable...but they were blown out of proportion.

Juicy Couture velour tracksuits, everyone was wearing them, you need SOME type of diversity!

Insane layering, example-Mary Kate Olsen. I can understand she did it to hide her tiny frame for the time being but some people just went overboard with the gypsy layering trend.

There are others but I can't think of them. How about you guys?

Fashionista101,

Could you please use a darker color for your postings? The pink is really hard to read.

Thanks!!

Polos. And two polos, one on top of the other. And "popping" the collars. Lacoste are the worst.

Although I agree the velour tracksuits got old mighty fast... ditto the Uggs...

i still hate the idea of the ladylike trend. glad to see it didn't fully materialize.

fashionista, I just edited the colour of the text in your post so that people could see it.

 

[Fashionista101]

thank you. lol i was looking for the other one that i posted i was like, oh that's weird.

and i agree with the colar popping thing, that was SO annoying, and people were doing it as a status thing i heard, like you popped it, you're well off. that was so stupid.

what was the ladylike trend? did i miss that one?

i hated those unflattering terrycloth tubetop beach dresses that a lot of tasteless celebs were wearing. and uggs became annoying once they became the "it" boots.

 

[ingenue]

i dont like Uggs... can you imagine i went to asia and saw people wearing them-- in the dead of summer? far out!!

 

[Tinuviel]

Uggs & mukluks or whatever they're called. Uggly!
Also Juicy Couture suits and anything terrycloth.
Loved the ladylike trend though.

ditto! What in the world was so great about that I really cannot fathom.

 

[Fashionista101]

ahh yes. i never really liked that trend, the bows and everything pink. i liked the tweed jackets and bags but some designers went overboard.

and whoever said von dutch that was the one that i couldn't think of the name of. i HATED everything von dutch, the hats, shirts, bags...what was wrong with those people? thank god it's almost forgotten now!

- jelly bags
- ponchos
- the overabundance of Juicy tracksuits-- I don't think they're that bad when you're having one of those days and you don't feel like getting dressed; the problem is when they become a wardrobe staple
- terry cloth in general

 

[Fashionista101]

ponchos!! yes. thank you jessica simpson.

and i never got the jelly bag thing, they were ugly versions of the ever classy birken bag. what were people on?!

 

[misschloe]

-Mukluks
-Sienna Miller's boho style. It was nice at first but then suddenly everybody started wearing similar clothes and were so 'chic' and 'boho'.

amen so many looser wear it hoping to look cool... in there dreams

tangerine...

I have always popped the collar on my polos... its best if you wear a nice cashmere jumper over the top... on my daggy days i do that and just wear navy track pants... but i have to agree way too many people are trying to be preppy and it makes me too xoxox

 

[mouko]

I have to agree with everyone here.

Von dutch/trucker hats, uggs, layered polos with the collars up.

And I'm not sure if this was really a trend but at leas here in san francisco, I saw a big surge in people carrying fake designer bags or lookalike mall brand copies. I got sick of that too.

 

[Fashionista101]

people carrying fake designer bags is a widespread epidemic.
