Is that really true? It is true for me, but I always assumed that is just because I were younger last century. In 1990 I could easily tell if someone was looking like 1980, but today I could never guess if someone looked like 2015 or 2025. I would be happy to learn that this is because fashion actually slowed down, but until proven wrong I will just assume it is because I am older and not paying attention.

If you don't think the younger generation dress crazily then fashion didn't change. Every previous generation thought the next generations clothes were crazy.

It’s because you were younger. As a “Gen Z” person, there’s a huge difference between 2010s fashions and the fashions of today.

It's the length of the socks

And the width of the pants
And the length of the pants vs the socks
How long are socks supposed to be now?
Apparently Gen Z prefer crew socks as opposed to millennial ankle socks.
It's easier to identify women's fashion among millennials imo:

2000's: jeans

2010's: leggings

2020's: not those
