Fashion of the Future (According to the 1930s)
It is interesting and sometimes comical to see how people imagined our times in decades past. In the 1930s, this short was seen at movie theaters and it concerned fashion for the new millenia. It is chiefly ladies fashion, but you will see an idea of menswear at the tail end.
There is a grecian goddess dresss that came to pass about 40 years after this short was made, and a topiary style hairdo about 43 seconds into the video that was thankfully a false prophesy, unless Marge Simpson once decided to change up her blue beehive. I don’t expect the “King Friday” look we see for men will come to pass anytime soon. Sadly, I have not found any “Part Two” to this to see if there were any more men’s looks. If the first one is any indication, I bet it was a hoot.
