Now, we’re not saying that designers have no original concepts or personal styles, far from it. In fact, it’s these concepts and styles that are blended with elements from before that make the piece retro, and not a re-make or re-imagined copy of something from the past. It’s that borrowing of design details that you see rampantly recycling through the community, and it’s done with awesome effectiveness. And these throw-backs to an earlier time seem to be resonating with the masses.
