Well, we still long for the old style things from kitchen furniture to shoes. They were more stronger and durable than those who are called "trend" today. For exampe, I can still wear the t-shirt I bought 10 years ago, but I can't wear the one I bought few years ago because it has already been worn off.
I think the word trend might be tricky, it might be a method of sales.
We spend some time looking for old chairs and lights that are quality, but the demand is very high on these things - probably because they last and have resale value.
These days, I buy cheap, plain T-shirts that are all the same :D
