Yesterday's tomorrow: Clothing of the year 2000


Full of 1930's futurist awesomeness: "Apparently in AD 2000 we shall be having a hair raising time!" Brother, you have no idea.

Ha! Great find. Some of the ideas are surprisingly like those explored here: http://www.fashioningtech.com/

Well, they got the mobile phone right and the woman wearing trousers. Two out of ...several... isn't bad!

That dude at the end is pretty much vintage Seattle grunge, with a Sci-Fi fetish to boot. And yes, we do all have radio-telephones now. Sigh.

This is hilarious! I am still waiting on the clothing of the future. I am really tired of all the old styles being recycled - bring on the environmentally controlled outfits!

High on the sexism, but still amazing! :)

Given the economic trends, people in the decapitalizing countries in the real 21st Century will have to wear old thrift shop clothes instead of the high-tech jumpsuits and unitards predicted by 20th Century "futurists."
