How come we don't have a signature fashion look like the 70s/80s/90s?

Do we have a 'look' like back in the day?

Entertainment is segregated these days. Before 2000 everybody had to consume basically the same trends in pop culture and catered their personal style to that. Now you like things on social media and basically have your own entertainment circle catered to you without having to deal with the things outside of your comfort zone...So you'll see pockets of people that dress the same way but it'll never be like it was back in the day because everybody is able to carve out their own glass house.

basically this...as long as you look presentable, you can get away with dressing however you like these days

the 2000s definitely had a distinct look, at least for urban fashion

The continuation of baggy fashion from the 90s in the early 2000s, and the tight clothes by the end of the decade.

the current decade is current, so its style we think of as "normal"

I am guessing OP isn't that old, because i'm old enough to see how trends have changed over the past ten years. In another ten years I'm sure we will see another transition, and other stuff will become popular. when you are young everything of course looks normal, but that's cuz you are looking at life with a narrow ass lens.

I think it's moving too fast now, and there are too many sub categories of style aswell. and there's too much influence from past generations I.E. high wasted shorts etc.

Which is a good thing imo, we may be going into an age of ambiguity fashion-wise?

We do, you just don't know it yet.

Give it 10 years, and we'll all be laughing at what we're wearing now.
I thought the same thing back in the 90s....now when I look back on it the 90s definitely had their own styles with clothes, hair etc. Every white dude looked like Joey Lawrence and every Black dude looked like Martin. :bryan:
