Anna Wintour says that fashion is not about looking back, but about looking forward. I disagree. History shows than all events get repeated once and again, only with different characters. And fashion is not different. A new thing is nothing more than an old thing that got forgotten.

When we talk about other eras’ clothing, we tend to imagine them through the films. And films are not always too accurate I’m afraid. Sometimes they don’t show the real style, but a reinterpretation they make from our time.

That’s why I love so much Defunct Fashion, because, for once, cloths are showed with out any filter. And even if they lose the charm, they win in realism. Let each one decide what they prefer.
