Hmm. When people start buying those things, they'll start selling them. 


 

 

@KaySD. Exactly!  Nobody is buying high end jewelry or gowns.  Just try to find a shirt with French cuffs so you can wear cuff links.  Women no longer wear suits or beautifully tailored dresses.  Right now casual is the word.



@Kachina624  Yep! It's getting hard to tell my clothes from my pajamas. I wear great pajamas...

I doubt we are the first that wish to be in another time.


@ECBG  True...

 

And there's absolutely nothing wrong with anyone relishing a time when striving for mediocrity wasn't the norm...

Absolutely.  Many people wish for what was.  It will never stop.  There are some times I loved more too.

Yes, it would be nice if they showed some beautiful clothes. I think Louis D does have some elegant pieces. You should check them out.

@ECBG  Exactly, I think we all get it that times are tough right now, and though we have to be realistic, there's certainly no need to embrace it with open arms...
