At least back then, hip-huggers were more decent. I actually think alot of the current popular fashions and cuts, look cheap and craftsmanship in tailoring/sewing technique has degraded. I am picky because I used to do alot of sewing, tailored stuff, etc.Originally Posted by Tuckervill
Zen, I actually don't really like many of the current loose tops like the sundress tops and dressy variations.
Am pretty boring...just a classic cut shirt with standup collar, with French cuffs (or sleeveless) and beautiful French seams that is slightly fitted in the body is good enough.
I used to raid my mother's wardrobe from the 1950's and worn certain pieces for 5-6 years --gorgeous wool tailored suits with incredible structural tailored features and cuts. Beautiful quality tailoring where clothing and fabric durability was long lasting. She got some brand new pieces from her sisters who worked in garmet factories.
