There are a number of fashion items that, instead of slipping off into obscurity, appear to have weathered the test of time with their uncanny knack of reinvention, remaining as sought-after by this generation as others.
The wristwatch has endured for eons
These days we are surrounded by gizmos and gadgets that tell us the time every minute of the day, yet the wristwatch has endured for eons and each season seems to re-create itself into a range of very different sizes, shapes, forms and colours. Whether ultra-modern or quaintly old-fashioned, watches are no longer worn simply to mark off the seconds of a day but as necessary accessories for the fashion-conscious out there. Watches are now often purchased for their glamorous bling appeal and the message they send out to the broader public, such as “My Rolex will tell you I’ve made itâ€
Scarves have foiled the accessory gods
Another accessory that has foiled attempts by the accessory gods to bury it perpetually is the ever-enduring scarf. A simple piece of silk or linen has the amazing ability to enhance even the drabbest of attire and has the added benefit of keeping the neck and shoulders snug. Granted, the trendies out there no longer wear the unassuming triangle on their heads, as their forebearers did, but rather as a splash of colour or texture to the neck.
Leather handbags forever
Handbags have endured for centuries, with the San Bushmen of South Africa crafting the first handbags out of the skins of hunted animals. Today, ostrich skin bags, crocodile handbags and snakeskin purses are all the rage, particularly with the fairer sex, and until woman learn to limit the ‘stuff’ they lug around with them on a daily basis, it is unlikely handbags will ever disappear.
The versatile T-shirt
The unassuming but amazingly versatile T-shirt is also here to stay. The simply designed cotton T-shirt has been worn as the main attraction, over long-sleeved tops or under shirts and jackets. It is mostly a blank canvas used by designers to view their opinions and thoughts about the world, which more often than not garners more attention than the T itself.
Black is best
Last but not least is the evergreen LBD. Black material has the heart-warming ability to make us look svelte and sassy when we’re fighting flab, to seldom show up spills or spots and to smarten up most outfits. The LBD (Little Black Dress) has reinvented itself so many times over the centuries because of its ability to focus attention on assets while evaporating liabilities that this little number is set never to drop off the fashion radar. Small wonder so many have already joined the burgeoning ‘black is best’ queue.
