Vintage
Vintage clothing is a generic term for new or second hand garments originating from a previous era.
Although there has always been some demand for old and/or second hand clothing, the awareness, demand and acceptance of this has increased dramatically since the early 1990s.
This increase in interest is due in part to increased visibility, as vintage clothing was increasingly worn by celebrities, e.g. Julia Roberts, Chloe Sevigny, Kate Moss, and Dita von Teese.
There has also been an increasing interest in environmental sustainability in terms of reusing, recycling and repairing rather than throwing things away. A resurgence of historically based sub-cultural groups like rockabilly and swing dancing has also played a part in the increase in interest in vintage clothes.
Boho chic
Boho-chic is a style of female fashion drawing on various bohemian and hippie influences, that, at its height in 2004-5, was associated particularly with actress Sienna Miller in the United Kingdom and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen in the United States.The boho look, which owed much to the hippie styles of the late 1960s, became especially popular after Sienna Miller's appearance at the Glastonbury Festival in 2004,[5] although some of its features were apparent from photographs of her taken in October 2003[6] and of others living in or around the postal district of W10 (North Kensington), an area of London associated with bohemian culture since the mid-1950s.
Navy
Navy style is inspired by sailors outfits and it was adapted for women. The distinctive colours are red, blue and white. The most used pattern is represented by lines and some specific clothing items are the piping sailor shorts, striped shirts, accesories with nautical symbols.
Hippie
Hippies borrowed clothing from folk cultures, used strong colors, flamboyant styles and a love of humble items such as jeans and other tattered and embellished street wear items to proclaim their non-conformism and thirst from freedom. Using anti-fashion as yet another form of protest against the establishment, they utilized clothing to tell of their plight for social equality and diversity. The modern version of hippie is the bohemian style (boho), but I wanted to include this style in this list,too.
Glam rock
Glam rock (also known as glitter rock), is a rock music style that developed in the UK in the post-hippie early 1970s which was "performed by singers and musicians wearing outrageous clothes, makeup, hairstyles, and platform-soled boots."[1] The flamboyant lyrics, costumes, and visual styles of glam performers were a campy, theatrical blend of nostalgic references to science fiction and old movies, all over a guitar-driven hard rock sound. It brings to the rock style feminine touches, such as long necklaces, bracelets, belts and also glam shoes. When you think at glam rock, the dominant colour isn't necessarily black. Other colours which could be used are violet, royal blue, powerful red and even fuchsia.
