Who/what brought bell-bottoms and flares back into style?

Question

I remember when I was growing up (in the late 80's/early 90's) with the horrible fashion that ran rampant (tight-rolled jeans, big hair, acid wash) that I NEVER thought bells would be fashionable. My mum always told me that I was a fool for this and would often bash me in the head with a clothes iron for my foolishness, but I hung steadfast until they reappeared on the fashion scene sometime later. Of course, I love them and can't imagine wearing anything else. Was there a specific designer that brought this particular look back?

Answer 1

fashion trends are due to cycles, just like how flares are going out of style now. we started wearing flares a few years ago, they got to be super-flared, then started coming back to a skinnier flare. Now we are moving towards stove-pipe and skinny leg jeans. When a trend reaches its saturation point, it starts moving back towards the opposite, like a pendulum. This is true for all fashion trends (think of how the mini skirts were in in the 60s and in the 70s lengths were longer)

Answer 2

Ebay or pricier thrift shops in case you desire to bypass genuine with the bellbottoms. you're no longer susceptible to discover classic clothing on your nearby goodwill or salvation military. sellers grab it up and sell it in area of expertise shops for traditional clothing. Flared denims are fairly basic and are available maximum retail shops.

Answer 3

There's not still popular, are they? I thought that died out 5 years ago. I think I remember it being most popularized by rave culture.
