Trendy & stylish Retro looks


In the period of wealth and prosperity new realities emerged,the kings threw their golden robs;adopted mobs’dress cod,went into background and became kingmakers.The clergy changed their styles,new words,new terminologies,new ideologies,new trends and new styles came to existence and new passions were discovered.It was the beginning of the new Era where we rejoiced the newfound prosperity.We replaced the grandmother’s furniture, hand-made; hand carved wooden mahogany large size table with newly designed well-finished white plastic table and lightweight chairs.The sofa,the bed, writing table,old big radio with husky sound,the huge and loud wall clock,we threw them all.We replaced all what was the reminder of old world with latest ”in-things”. We covered our dreadful walls with plaster hardboard and plywood.We made the walls smooth and pleasant to touch. We placed wall-to-wall carpets to cover the original floor,concealed electricity wiring,concealed ventilation pipes,the trend was to cover all and everything.We followed fashions,trends and styles.We all behaved in same manner,all had same activities,same attitude,same ideas and same taste.
One day the trend changed.We threw our plastic furniture and brought the grandmother’s furniture back to our homes.We paid substantial amount to buy it.We started peeling off the plaster from the walls,throwing away the wall-to-wall carpets so to expose the original floor.We exhibited our huge,ugly metal ventilation pipes with pride and wiring was not concealed anymore.We started wearing grandmother's, grandfather’s clothes and their jewellery.We are stylish, trendy and fashionable people with retro looks.
