How 1930's Citizens Thought Fashion Would Be in 2000


This video is too cute. Some of it hit the nail on the head. Although skirts have not completely disappeared (skirts and dresses are actually more popular now than they were a few years back) pants are acceptable for women to wear for almost any occasion. And the shoes she had on with the pants were very 2000. Very. The cut out wedge with two wide metallic straps? Yeah I'm pretty sure I would've rocked those around 2000 or so.
The dress that they made go from day to night just by adjusting the sleeves was pretty nifty. And do-able, wonder why that's not happening. At least in the business world. Being able to easily alter a business suit from day to night would also help you be able to wear it year round as well. People can't afford to be buying decent suits for every occasion. I'm glad I don't work a job where I'm required to wear a suit.
The dress with a transparent net is hilarious!! Very Madonna circa 1983 LMAO!! And the hair style of choice, not right. Not right at all. There was a lot of "transparent net" going on in the 70's and even a little in the 90's depending on what crowd you run with. LOL. Jamie Foxx used to wear those see-thru shirts towards the end of the Jamie Foxx show when he was finally started to feel sexy.

Then he goes on the say that the woman of tomorrow, OOH SWISH, will move at a scientifically controlled temperature.......is that called central air? LMAO!
The wedding dress. Horrid! Lmao. And they didn't mention what the groom would wear because they still wear the same damn thing. The tie width, the fit, and color may change, but overall its all the same.
And the dress that she can unzip and change was kewl too. My only thing is, if they had the materials to make all these things for this video, why didn't they just make it back then? I'm sure the 1930's woman would've enjoyed a convertible suit.
The man at the end with all the compartments and the telephone and radio attached to his chest was too funny. They said for men, there would be no shaving, color, ties or pockets. I don't think men's fashions will ever change that much. Men have gotten pretty daring with the leather and booty shorts in the 70's and the uber bagginess of the 90's/2000's. But as far as business wear, its all the same. He looks like a damn super hero robot. Its funny how back in the day everybody thought the world would be so machine like by the year 2000. Little did they know that in the 2000's we would be looking back to them for fashion inspiration!!
