    Jokes on you, I’m wearing a T-shirt and jeans I bought 10 years ago and it still looks like a T-shirt and jeans today and I suspect it’s the same 10 years after.

      Irvin Tang the classics don’t go out of style. Jeans + t’shirt, the pinstripe suit, the little black dress, etc. 👌

      Tahtahme Xero you are so right! I guess I include it in my “classics” list because it does keep coming back & because I myself have a penchant for old gangster flicks. That said, my daily uniform is still the classic jeans & T. 👍

    “Whatever you’re wearing now is going to look totally stupid in 10 years.” AND... will be all the rage again in 25 years. Fashion is cyclical and everything comes back around in time.
    Btw you forgot to mention the hair styles... the bad guy’s hair style is actually a thing now a days! (Minus the plastic shield.) Also, if you want to know what the next trend will be, look 100 years past and mix it with 25 years past... voilà!

      @the_Mrs. 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Roland Pierce look at the styles from 100 years ago, AND from 25 years ago, those trends are popular again now. It seems to be a cycle, so if you want to know what comes next look at what was popular in the past. 👀

      Kay H, exactly. There’s a reason that Sheryl Crow song that says “these are the days when anything goes” pops into my head every time I see someone sporting something odd. But while anything goes, there are trends within the trades, certain colors and influences that come and go. 👜👡

    • @GammaRayTV
      @GammaRayTV  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      A lot of 20th century casual clothes will probably hold up for a long time, but it’s those yearly trends that come and go so quickly that will look dated in a few years. Then in 25 years they’ll be cool again! Anyway, glad you enjoyed the episode! What else should we cover?

    Jean Giraud (moebius) actually worked on it on costume/character design along with Mézières, Giraud worked in preproduction (but for a short time I think) he later ended up suing Besson (unsusessfully) because he ripped off on a lot of ideas from his books.
