Someone at American Apparel wants 1992 to come back REAL bad. Scrunchies? High-cut one-piece bathing suits à la Baywatch? Berets? People, this is not moving forward. How the fuck are we supposed to make it through these difficult economic times if people are wearing and buying scrunchies? Seriously! I want to be open to new ideas and styles and giving old trends a fresh twist, but this one is not a winner. I will be very disappointed if this catches on.
Excessive scrunchie glorification. And high-cut one piece swimsuit.
Looking back at the scrunchie’s first rise to popularity in the late eighties, things were going fairly well. Bringing back inconsequential trends from that era is not going to solve our problems! If anything, the excessive, materialistic attitude we developed around that time is part of the reason why there are no jobs and why capitalism in this country as we knew it is now royally fucked! Scrunchie it is YOUR fault that I have no job, money, or car so FUCK YOU! You never properly restrained my hair anyways. I always had to use a hairtie too.

the worst part about this is that I can already see all the little eurotrash-tektonic dacing-french girls buying these by the bucketload at H&M on rue rivoli.
