Fashions of the Future as Imagined in 1893

Future Dictates of Fashion by W. Cade Gall was published in the January 1893 issue of The Strand magazine. The article reveals the contents of an imaginary book from a hundred years in the future (published in 1993) titled The Past Dictates of Fashion. The book takes a look back at the last century of fashion (1893 -1993).

This imagined future of fashion is not spot on.  I know we dressed weirdly in the 60s and 80s but I never saw outfits as strange as these. Here are a few examples.
