'Past' Trends

Today all the Level 1 ABM students from staffs went up to Manchester for a research project on trends, there was a place a few of us visited called Afflecks Palace just a block or two away from the Arndale Centre, Afflecks Palace is a 3 floor building filled with different shops, generally alternatives to high street fashion etc. however I did notice a few 'Trends' amongst the reclaimed clothes and items there was items that were appearing in most fashion outlets, there was old technology like type writers and atari gaming systems on sale as bespoke interior fashion accesories, my observation is that the key trends of the moment are new technology and eco design, but there is still a place for nostalgia amongst fashion and innovation.
