Fashion can be so myopic, as much as we love its possibilities. The things now feel dated to us; we once loved, like Lena Dunham’s Golden Globe dress. We find ourselves scrolling through image archives regularly, wondering who thought ruche everything was a good idea.
But, sometimes we have a moment where we see a garment panned by Joan Rivers and the fashion police that was absolutely hated and making everyone’s worst dress list, in retrospect kind of ruled. So, we dug through the reviled, the upsetting, the bad, and found some things written off that that may have been ahead of their time.
