If more proof is needed that I am now officially OLDTM you need only consider my baffled response to my middle-school-aged step-cousin informing me yesterday that her mode of dress was the new style, and apparently everyone is wearing it. What was she wearing you ask: a long-ish white tunic t-shirt that fell just below her behind, and was trimmed

Sounds like the stuff we wore in the 80s!

That's what I was thinking.

Stockings/tights without pants isn't all that far off from the Emma Peel catsuit sorts of things that one even saw back in the 1970s

But that stuff was usually opaque/thicker. I mean, we wore bodysuits in the early 90s with our pants, but they were opaque.

Those were sweater dresses that at least went to mid-thigh, though...

Not mine. Was a huge mini/leggings fan in the 80s. And a bit of a wild one.

Yeah, leggings were one thing. I wore nothing but leggings with long sweaters in middle school, as was the style. These were not leggings, and were not opaque enough to be mistaken for leggings, though, as stated in my previous comment.

I think the main thing that made me feel old was that, as I said in referenced comment, I honestly thought she hadn't put on her bottoms yet.
