I still have all my gloves, wrapped in tissue paper; including long black leather ones and opera-length. Every time I think of tossing them, I wonder if maybe they’ll come back in style.

But nothing ever really comes back. It’s always changed in some way.

A few things have come back without a noticeable change. I wore crew neck sweaters in college and my daughter’s generation wore them in high school 18 years later.

Doubt if we’ll ever see felt poodle skirts or circle skirts with a ton of crinolines under them. That would be considered “dressing up” to wear something like that now - something most people don’t do.

I also remember women not being permitted to wear slacks or shorts of any kind to work in the office and always wore heels, stockings, a girdle, a slip and a suit or dress. If that happened now, most women would not have anything to wear.
