Usually when trends come back for a second merciless attack on the American populous, it's the young'uns who are donning the neon leg warmers or the bellbottoms with flower patches. When it's someone who actually wore the offending garment in the first place, that's just sad. And while we will be happy to see the American Apparel '80s revival overkill die, we're not quite ready for the resurrection of grunge fashion. Partly because no one but your Nana should even own a slip in 2009, not even Courtney Love, much less wear it as a dress. And partly because if we catch ourselves singing along to the Gin Blossoms on the "alternative classics" radio station, it's no better than our dad rocking out to Blue Oyster Cult on the AOR channel.
