"Wonderful materials and stylish garments" - Mm!!!!! I'm afraid all I see these days is a sea of total boredom - one big High Street yawn!dominamac wrote: ↑August 16th, 2022, 4:15 pmBeats me. Mid 80's to early 90's was a fabulous period for ladies shiny rainwear. Occasionally it seemed that it might make a return but never seems to have reached the heights of this period or even come close. Wonderful materials and stylish garments nonetheless.

Maybe it's a sign global warming is real? It's just become to hot for pvc?

Quite possibly! I don't know about it being "too hot" (I'm in the UK) - we probably get about half a dozen days a year of what I would call extreme heat (35 degrees C plus) - and that's about it!

I suppose that if anything went wrong it is changing fashion. Having said that it seems to me that women these days do not want to stand out in a feminine way; it was a remark by one of my neighbours "years ago I always wore stiletto heels", that set me thinking that you rarely see those being worn now, big hair has become uncommon, and tattoos are by contrast with years ago are very common on women now.rothbhoy wrote: ↑August 16th, 2022, 4:05 pmI was at the University of East Anglia (Norwich) then but often used to travel to London on Saturdays to take in the mac sights down there. I lived in London for 7 months in 1989 - still plenty of macs around then too. Whatever went wrong?????

Well, it most definitely is changing fashion - and not a good one to someone who lived through the wonderful 70s, 80s and 90s when the sights of lovely ladies on our streets in their PVC/Rubber/Plastic/PU macs really was something to behold. Oh well, we move on, the memories linger on though....Rainworshipper wrote: ↑August 18th, 2022, 4:55 amI suppose that if anything went wrong it is changing fashion.
