How often do we hear parents or grandparents gently scolding their children and grandchildren about their way of dressing? This is mainly due to the fact that in different eras people have always dressed in different ways. In truth, many fashions of the past come back strongly into vogue even after several years, - others instead disappear forever, fortunately! - giving us the thrill of remembering how our grandparents dressed. Taking a look at the photos of the past one wonders if, in reality, they had much more style than us. More and more frequently we try to mimic vintage styles, in the hope of being alternative, when in reality we are just re-proposing an item of clothing that was once so dear to our grandmothers.

In this photo list we have collected some photos from different eras and we have come to the conclusion that "our grandparents" had much more style than us!
