Can we discuss bonkers fBritish ashion mistakes please?

I'm reminissing (might have spelt that wrong):

Those funny tracksuits with poppers up the legs.
Srunchies and puffy hairbands.
HUGE t-shirts with 'clever' slogans written
Track suits with stuff written on the arse.
Thongs on show.

No reason, just thought it might be theraputic.

What were those shiny track suits called? Perhaps the same ones you're referring to? Oh god, thick velvet Alice bands, I had some and one of the shiny tracksuits! . Those huge fleeces with big pictures of dogs/wolves on them! Couples wearing matching outfits.. this often applies to the dog fleece wearers! I've never thought those shoes - oh what the bloody hell are they called, rubberish/plastic with 'holes/gaps' in the tops, often adorned with little coloured badge type things, they've got a particular name but I can't think of it

Global Hypercolour (was that the name?) t-shirts which changed colour when they got hot......

[MummyPenguin]

I had one of those! I thought I was the dogs bollocks!

[BruceParry]

Didn't it just look like you had massive sweat patches though? (I was actually jealous of anyone who had one)

[tulpe]

weren't the shiny tracksuits called Shell Suits?

90's bootleg trousers with high waists (see any Friends re-run), particularly when coupled with v tight top which just reaches the waistband of the trousers.

Bows: attached to hair slides, shoes (front and back), jackets etc - twas sparked by Fergie (ie the red head who married Prince Andrew, as opposed to the one who sings with the Black Eyed Peas.....for the benefit of younger viewers )

Lady Di-style frilly collared shirts

Fugly block-heeled ankle boots - another gem from the 90s and still beloved of M&S Woman.
