Winter Edition: Day 6 > Decade or Region

If the challenge were a little longer I might make these separate days but the halved time frame requires some economy with prompts.

I'm sure we all have a decade that speaks our sartorial language and over the past few years we've seen a huge interest in vintage fashion. Victory rolls, wide legged jeans, neon...all places we've bravely gone before but don't mind revisiting. My inspiration pictures start in the 20s but you can go as far back as you want for inspiration (know how to update a fig leaf? I would love to see that).

The other day I saw a super cute girl wearing what I can only describe as a modern, daytime wear friendly kimono. It was a lot cooler than it sounds (I should have sucked it up and asked for a picture). It was obvious where her inspiration came from but it wasn't costumey at all. So if you have a regional style that speaks to your soul then go for it! Kimonos, dirndls, saris, lederhosen etc. They're all up for interpretation.

I said this a couple days ago but try to keep from going Halloween with this. This prompt isn't permission to bust out that poodle skirt you sometimes wear in October. You can go all out if you want but that's not required. Sometimes one 80s inspired neon bracelet is enough to get your point across.
