The 1950s thru the mid sixties, IMO. Late sixties & 1970s stunk. Click on the link to see snippets from 1900 thru 1990.

im sure we will get a lot of people on here talking about the 40s and 30s and such...
I liked a few years ago when you could wear a tshirt and jeans (or sweatshirt and jeans) and be just fine. Other than that, I dont know. the 80's sucked and the 90's werent much better....

I loved the fashions of the 40s. The dresses, the hats. Gloves...of course I write this as I sit in my sweats...

I'm not sure t-shirts and jeans are considered "fashion", but a chick in a well fitting pair of Levi's.....

The high water mark of sartorial civilization should be obvious.

I love wearing gray fedoras, so I guess that puts me in the 30's-40's era.

The fashions of the 1940's were among the most glamorous ever.

The Regency period of course!
Empire dresses, pretty hair styles, gorgeous fabrics etc.
Great fashions for those with Sponge-Bob body types :)

The 1950s thru the mid sixties, IMO. Gotta agree with that. Ladies fashions were superb.
And men always wore hats. Very dapper hats. I love to collect them. They're getting hard to find in good condition.
