I have been thinking lately...what happened to all of the great patterns we used to see in fashion?

Ehen you think about it, we rarely see these anymorevandvi believe it's because with polyester, it is more difficult to create. 
I miss some of the fabrics we used to see.

So, apparently designers are feeling it too!

google search for "herringbone" brought up lots of offerings!

OMG @Pyrite2616  I have that necklace from 1994. My my mother got me a marching 5mm bracelet not long after. Something about this more narrow look appealed to me...that, and the reasonable price!

These are the ones I have. I think the bracelet would go with them nicely, even if the gauge doesn't match.

I really like the herring bone pattern in clothing. Have a t-neck w/that pattern.I prefer a smaller type of pattern.

Everything old is new again.  I am enjoying the new/old patterns in clothing.

I've seen the same styles come and go several times over my decades of life. Maybe herringbone is coming back too.

I own two very large herringbone necklaces, 14 and 18k. They were attention getters back when I was working and they will grab attention today. They both have high gram weights and I would not be able to afford to buy them today.

I can't imagine adults thinking real gold.....real gold!! Or even silver ..being outdated.

Who puts these crazy ideas in our heads and what makes us fall for this stupid stuff?

Get off the stupid merry go round and be sensible.  If you love it, buy it and wear it, and for others, stop trying to shame others into going along with these crazy trends.

@Carmie I so AGREE (I am shouting) with that statement.  Classic design, precious metals and good taste have been in style for a very long time.  Like thousands of years long, and will be for a long time forward.

Trends and fads come and go.  Invest in classics and wear them a lifetime then pass them on.

I love herringbone designs and always will wear them and buy them.  I am looking at a sectional right now in a light oatmeal color and a subtle herringbone weave.  And am thinking of getting another like it but a little different seating configuration.

You are spot on Carmie! Or should I say herringbone correct!

@LTT1 Love those, they are classics for sure. In my current station of life I would love to have that B/W sweater.
