Well on the catwalks of fashion shows anyways.
Read an article in the fashion section of today's paper, models strutting out on the catwalk wearing flannel.

    Did it really ever leave?

    A month ago, I was coming home after dropping my kid off at school, and I saw a high school age boy walking to school in leggings, shorts, doc martins, and a flannel shirt. I did a double take. And according to a niece who works in fashion, mullets are coming back too. :fp: :nono:
    And the sun it may be shining . . . but there's an ocean in my eyes

    the thing i hated most back in the nighties, was when I (we) dressed grunge, just because it was simply the way we dressed and felt comfortable in, then when it became a fashion, and everybody just thought you were following a fashion, that freaking annoyed the shit out of me. please don't let it become a fashion again,

    while i'm at it, i've had long hair since i was a kid, and the amount of times i've had people come up to me in the past and say long hair isn't in fashion anymore, i should get it cut.. I hate fashions.

    Mullets haven't really ever gone out of style down here in the south!

    Doc Martins...the missus won't let me get a pair. Says it isn't 1994 anymore. I say that they are damn comfortable, so who cares? Plus, they make a steel toe version that go great with my business casual attire for work.

    I never really stopped wearing Doc Martens since the 90's.

    I have one or two other pairs of shoes, but I usually wear my Doc Martens (a black and a brown Aztec Crazy Horse pair).

    No No mom jeans and I stick to the rule if you wore it once you should not wear it again for trends but these

    If only I could somehow reason out the price.... maybe they will make me look like I did back in the early 90's for that! ;)

    mullet dresses are ugly! I was going thru my closet and found shortalls, the bibs that are shorts rather then long pants. :fp:

    I have a few jeans from the 90s...and I can fit into them again! though, they are high waisted-can't believe we wore those terrible things! The waist is right at my rib cage, and I feel like I'm suffocating if I put them on.

    But "good" mullets (and I believe that may be as big an oxymoron as military intelligence) are few and far between. No images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSd20KlCVFqWViSbkvF2a4Z4snH4x5yuAOuRM6y46BtTc6cOAoB or images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRr-ajfJBepAoFWIOfReXCwhezBX8seX2qy7VyDZ22HWNRIq-631A or images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSsoQuW5shGFlEh2z41T3De-iUaI88WkFjOP6-oFjg8ZeVXHPo1 :fp: :nono: :nono: :nono: :nono: :nono: :nono: ;)
