Fashion trends inevitably come around again, and their return is often met with dread — but then, there are some trends that really deserve another chance to shine. Recently, the BuzzFeed Community shared the style trends they actually want to see make a comeback…
1.“Xanadu-style which was a mix of disco and Greek classical, just the prettiest look on women ever.”
Universal Pictures
2.“I loved me some shoulder pads!”
3.“Dramatic capes.”
4.“It’s a little counterintuitive to make it a trend, but a more punk/grunge aesthetic (leather, studs, thick eyeliner) would be fun.”
5.“Wrap dresses/Kimono-style tops and dresses.”
—Eb
6.“The empire waist. In 2008 that was all I wore. Shirts with puffed sleeves, scooped necklines, and a fitted bodice with a ribbon or band under the breasts and a flowy bottom. With jeans and platform wedged heels.”
7.“Chunky jewellery.”
8.“’70s hair and sideburns on men.”
9.“Edwardian blouses and walking skirts. So chic!”
10.“Renaissance/medieval dresses”
11.“I liked those Isabel Marant platform wedge sneakers in 2010ish.”
—Sally
12.“Coral, like that proper ’80s color coral.”
—Kate
13.“Banana hair clips! They look so cute on curly hair, and they don’t give that ‘ponytail holder’ look after you take it out.”

14.“The glamour from the golden age of Hollywood. Think Rita Hayworth, Audrey Hepburn, Veronica Lake, and Grace Kelly.”
15.” That hyper-feminine, floaty, Lord-of-the-Rings/Arthurian-heroine/’70s flower child kind of aesthetic.”
16.“Hats from the 1920s-1950s: cloches, buckets, bonnets, gainsboroughs, cartwheels, fascinators, pillboxes, berets…just all the stylish hats.”
—Eileen
