I thought this was interesting clip. Some of the ideas were kind of weird, but some of them are right on, including the clip with the lady in pants. Her outfit and shoes looks almost like something out of the 80's/90's, also notice the guys is equipped with a portable telephone and portable radio, AKA cell phone and Ipod.

The women's fashions weren't so bad.
The man's "Buck Rogers" outfit was pretty bad. At let I will have a Batman utility belt in A.D. 2,000.lol

Wow, that guy at the end looked like a cross between Buck Rogers and the Burger King! Perhaps the phone on his chest is for taking drive-thru orders up at the nearest spaceport?

I still think the women's fahsion's all looked pretty 30's and 40's. Too funny! Esp. the hair. Ha, I'm sure they never thought we'd be wearing it straight and down.

Candies for cuties? Oooo, "swish", LOL!

wow. that was a good laugh. I needed that today. I liked that day dress to evening dress 'it's all in the sleeves bit' that actually looked kinda cool....If only fashion really had become that creative.
