The Punch---Yes but can these really be considered STYLES.
The older style were at least styles, these new "styles" are really a lack of style.

Buffalobo--Yes, but Zuit Suits,drapes or pegged pants,bell bottoms, Ivey League Button downs,crew cutts,and D.A. haircuts were all styles, wheather or not you liked them.
These new ideas seem to be an absence of style.

If I put my shoes on the wrong feet, have I created a new "style"?
If I stop washing my clothes, do my dirty clothes become a new "style"?
Wearing your cap backwards is a "style"?

My grandmother has been dressing people for years. She and I agree that we are at a point where "anything goes" when it comes to style.
As for music.. yeah, anything goes there too.

Old question asked uncountable times for as many generations as humanity has been able to ask.
Seems that the mainstream usually thinks the most recent generation is completel;y at a loss in re style, manners, ability, etc, ad nauseum. Read some historical accounts -- larger libraries nearly always have newspaper "morgues" on ficroform of various types. Look, for example, at late 1940s/early '50s and see what they thought of changes after WW II. It goes on and on... there are accounts of ancient Romans complaining about these same issues long before the Christian era. Look at a fashion section just a few years ago; there is a good chance that someone will be compaining about what "eveyone is wearing" now... and "fashionably".

Yes to the middle two. Older styles are equally atrocious, but for other reasons. I'm with you on the music one though, some music today is crap, seriously, and I'm pretty open-minded about music, in my opinion.
EDIT: Yes, I do think that todays "style" is a "style". Imagine back in the sixties, people started wearing tie-dye shirts and flared jeans, don't you think older people will have said "Todays youth have got no style.". If todays style is people wearing baggy jeans and a hoody, then that IS a style, it's just different. I'm not sure if what I'm saying is coming across right.
