What current looks will be dated quickly, do you think? What looks from previous years did you think were classic looks, but now feel extremely dated?

Readers were talking about the sheath dress we posted yesterday — I still think it’s a classic look for a certain situation, but it’s certainly less common than it was in years past.

I’ve noticed a lot of comedic memes making fun of clothing from the early-aughts — the way we wore blazers everywhere, including while out to brunch, the huge sock buns, the cheap statement necklaces… it’s really funny having lived through those days because it didn’t feel like “wow this is such a 2010 look” but… of course it is.

These days I think it’s going to be the wide leg, baggy denim and the cropped sweater — as well as the sneakers-with-everything trend. (And the calf-height socks with bare legs!)

Readers, how about you? What 2025 looks do you think will be quickly dated? Are you leaning into them to have fun while they’re trendy, or choosing to opt out if you don’t like the style?

(Related question: does it feel like trends are moving more quickly, at least in terms of how quickly things get outdated?)
