Most of you probably shop online or go to a hidden shop your friends don’t know about, but once upon a time there is this place called the Mall!! Hard to believe that almost 20 years ago this was the place to be seen. Kids would skip school to go to the mall—yes it was that serious. All sorts of crazy fashion parades through these mega shopping centers. The scene was filled with goths, skaters, mallrats, super teased Jersey hair, and acid washed jeans—sounds like a party right? For your viewing pleasure, How to Be a Retronaut gathers 60 images that takes you back and gives you a look at the scene back in those days. Peep some of the flicks above.
