Actually, while it didn’t look like that one, I had several people ask me when I was pregnant with my first (1989) where my pregnancy girdle was. Ok, these were Filipino nurses, but they did ask. Apparently it was some type of support undergarment that was supposed to help… what exactly, I dunno.
So, I’m thinking it’s out there, somewhere.
Tonsures.
Mutton chop sideburns for men (but they might for women! just kidding)
Or, maybe not:

Considering that these were revived at least once since the late 19th Century (the 1970s), I can see them coming back someday. Same with women’s shoulder pads, as someone upthread mentioned. They were around in the 40s, then they were around in the 80s. They’ll be back.
I’m starting to feel like the ambassador of greasy hipsters, but mutton chops are very very popular. I would also really, really like them to go away. I hate them on hipster jackasses, but love them in old historical pictures.
ETA: Ah, jayjay is with me. Really, check out indie bands right now, espeically ones that come from Williamsburg or Austin, and you will find tons of muttonchops.
A lot of women I know. A lot.
Yep. As much as I can’t stand her, Jennifer Lopez changed things. No longer do my friends and I tie cardigans around our waists to hide our fat butts, our posture has changed so that we are sticking those fools out. Who knew?
Ok, I’ll try to step away from this thread, I just love the hell out of talking about fashion. It’s a hobby:)
Like Guin said, too late. A few years ago Urban Outfitters was wall-to-wall gouchos. Tons of girls wore them my senior year of college.
I have to say that I like the mutton chops on hipsters, but then I’m a sucker for guys with facial hair.
Oh, men are definitely wearing tight pants, and I am all for it. It seems to be a European hipster thing. A quick poke around street fashion blogs like Face Hunter, hel-looks.com, and Style Scout supports this theory.
Pretty much anything that requires a valet or ladies’ maid to get into.
Ultra tight pants have been in among American hipsters for a while now. Walk around some trendy neighborhoods in Brooklyn and see if you can find guys whose jeans don’t look like painted skin.
What’s wrong with breeches? Hikers wear breeches, and some people in Europe still wear breeches. There’s no reason they’re too impractical to ever come back in style.
Tricorne
Just recently, in Japan:
A colleague, who is Australia, regularly wears a Nehru jacket. And I have sported mutton-chop sideboards since the late 1980s (although admittedly these are a deliberate affectation)
OK, that absolutely seals it. I’m visiting Japan. 
I’ll repost my recent post in the What Fashion Do You Wish Would Come Back thread:
I vow to stay in my fashion wasteland. Gauchos AND muttonchops are back?
AAAAUUUUUGGGGHHHHH!!!
Both are hideous. Muttonchops look like a creeping fungus of the face. Either grow the damned beard or don’t (same with that stupid little square of facial hair that was so popular a few years ago on men’s chins. Blessedly, that fad has passed).
A fashion I wish would die is the “show your boxers and walk with your jeans around your upper thighs because you are such a tough boyz n da hood kind of guy” look. It’s still around–it’s fading, but not fast enough.
