I did not know of air canes befor your post. Now, I want one.
They look kinda snood-y to me.
I have to admit they do have snood appeal.
I have a number of gaiters made out of a fleece material. They’re great in the cold. Wear one around my neck, and another on my head as a hat to cover my ears.
Oh, my most important fashion accessory is “Denial”
How about long coats for outdoor wear, specifically peacoats and dusters.
used clothing stores which specialize in costumes and retro looks.
I looked pretty hot in that combo when I was fifteen. But really hard to pee in.
Have peacoats really been out of style? Because you can easily buy one any time in the last few decades from Banana Republic or J Crew, etc.
When I was a teen in the late 80s I always wanted a heavy metal denim vest—you know the ones with a big back patch of a band sewed on it and several smaller patches of other bands covering the rest of it.
I’d only buy one if it had a snap crotch. I had a couple of those back in the day.
I want blouses with big collars and full gathered sleeves. Not “puffy” shirts. Not pirate shirts. Just a tailored blouse with more fullness. I hate wimpy little collars and tight sleeves.
I say let’s bring back top hats and monocles.
And spats?
Sure, spats too.
It does. I remember them being referred to as 'Qiana nylon shirts" back in the Seventies. I had one. It was hideous, but I loved it (I was an 11-year-old tomboy. There was a lot of hideous fashion back then.)
I liked those wild colors. But I really liked the fabric. It’s featherweight light and thin, yet toasty warm. I guess it doesn’t “breathe”. That mattered to me because I worked the night shift at a large computer center in an air-conditioned room, and it got chilly in there. Those shirts, light-weight though they were, really kept me toasty warm.
Beatle boots. 'Cuz I’m short.
Dresses and skirts, and long pants and shirts.
Second the call for hats (except trilbies or stovepipes*), cloaks, and walking sticks. Frock coats are cool, too, but I’d have to lose fifty pounds before I could wear one…
Long dresses with leg-of-mutton sleeves.
It does to me.
That’s the only kind of snood I know.
I’d call that a lace cap.
I wouldn’t call a peacoat a long coat. Do you mean bridge coats?
* Probably not Davy Crockett coonskin hats, either.
Desert boots
I am late to this thread but I’ve got to say snoods.
I literally had to buy a snood for a baby because regular snoods are far too large for my neck. My neck isn’t particularly wide but there’s no way a typical snood fits a typical neck.
