Funky Prints and Crop Tops
Let ’ s move further in time and take a look at
the funky prints fashion trend that originated in the ‘ 70s . This decade is famous for its Hippie and Anti-war movement as well as the disco glamour of the new music genre . The motives of peace and love are represented by the colourful patterns that people in the ‘ 70s wore . Nowadays , we can wear those prints on a jacket or pants and combine them with another huge fashion trend that made its comeback : crop tops . This trend started to gain popularity in the late 1960s and reached their peak in the ‘ 90s when they played a crucial role in pop culture . Iconic celebrities , such as Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera , used to wear crop tops with low-waist jeans and shaped the decade with those looks . However , crop tops were not only worn by women . The early Rocky movies showed Sylvester Stallone working out in a crop top , which created a huge buzz around this trend , and later , it was worn by many rappers and American football players . This combination of ‘ 70s prints and a crop top is also an outfit that is easy to find in J ’ adore vintage , one of the numerous stores in Breda . It is fascinating how fashion trends circulate back through the years . There are plenty of possibilities to elaborate on our style and make it more interesting and edgy by just looking into the past . So , don ’ t waste any minute and go get that vintage look !
