The Rise of Conservative Fashion
Fashion trends in the 2020s are reflecting a return to conservative styles reminiscent of the 1950s. This shift is seen in the resurgence of fuller cut suits and traditional tailoring, which are often considered symbols of stability and authority. The podcast discusses how this re-emergence parallels a cultural shift, acting as a response to a perceived societal 'war' that has unfolded culturally. As people increasingly seek to define their identities through fashion, a connection to heritage and robust traditional values becomes more pronounced.
