Canada

Oh, Canada.

Egypt (note the coming and going and return of the headscarf)


The research behind Egypt


Men in the US - Black (note the greater style variation than with the white men video)


The research behind Men in the US -Black


Ireland (I was surprised by the north/Republic variation)


The research for Ireland

[Wondering]

Missed this when you first posted it.

I was surprised to see the headscarf gone for so long in Egypt and then making a comeback after such a long absence. It wasn't just a decade or two.

And yeah, the black men's US has way more variation than the white men's. White men's seemed like it was just yoyoing back and forth every couple decades. Every decade was different for the black men.

I'm also suprised to see so much variation between Ireland and Northern Ireland. They're so close! Seems like much more variation than even West and East Germany. Also, I think Ireland wins for worst '80s hair.

Syria. They do not have the "Making of" video posted yet



ETA: And Kenya. Thus proving that even if you have great style in all other decades, the 1980s were unkind

These are awesome!!
And will make very good drawing models too!

[Enail]

I only just saw the Kenya one now, and man, yeah, 80s, wtf!? I think it's otherwise one of the most consistently stylish ones, though, and that model is gorgeous.

Ooooh! I never thought of that, but they would.

The 80s were such an unfortunate fashion era. The music was amazing and I guess it stole all of the amazing for the decade, leaving none for clothes, hair, make up, interior decorating or celebrities (the 80s were the beginning of Trump fame)

I've remarked in the past that I'm also interested in the evolution of styles, is this the appropriate thread for fashion breakdowns by country such as this? http://highfashionpakistan.tumblr.com/post/146010705459/pakistani-fashion-101

Sure, unless you want to create a stand alone thread. It is a topic that might be worth its own discussion instead of as an add on to a video series

Puerto Rican style in PR & NY. Once again the 1980s were unkind

[Wondering]

I think 1980s New York one looks a bit like Sarah Jessica Parker.

[reboot]

Hawaii escaped the bad hair of the 1980s, but it got them in 2000s, albeit not as terrible as elsewhere

[Werel]

...That 90s hair is still going strong here.

Kyrgyzstan, inspired by but not the same people as the other ones:



1900s looks amazing.

[Wondering]

They skipped the '80s. Totally cheating!

[BasedBuzzed]

On one hand, less decades. On the other hand, outfits!

[reboot]

Kyrgyzstan is awesome! So much cool headwear!

Argentina is not quite as exciting, and yes the 80s did it again


Here is the Making of

[reboot]

France, being France, avoided the fashion horrid of the 80s and managed to remain chic


Navajo women also dodged the 80s curse

[reboot]

Haiti also came through the 80s rather unscathed

[reboot]

'80s edition...All the bad in one place

[reboot]

Sweden apparently absorbed all the bad '80s Haiti and everyone else missed


But they have more gender equity, so worth it

[Enail]

Wow, I didn't think the 80s could be worse than the ones we've seen already. Damn!

[reboot]

Sweden did take '80s bad to a level that has not been surpassed, yet..... Maybe Denmark can top it?

[Enail]

I'm not sure I could survive worse
