Because it looks dumb af and always did?
Just like the hairstyles everyone had in the 80's. There's a reason no one really dresses like that and it's because generally everyone realized how dumb it really was.
Yeah, I think that the 80s were a stylistic low point in western history. Everything looked bad from the clothes, to hair styles, to electronics, to cars, to home decor (though that specific area bottomed out before the 80s and was on its way up).
The music though!
The next generation always says the previous generation had no style. Or else we wouldn't call it a trend
