These are all styles I could come up with. Maybe you canadd more. Fashion is constantly referring to past styles rather then coming up with a leap forward.Everything is a Remix.

The MoMA exhibition: Contemporary Painting in an Atemporal World explores references in the arts. Style.com: The current state of painting, which the show sets out to explore, mirrors the current state of fashion. In the show’s catalog, curator Laura Hoptman observes, contemporary art-making is “inspired by, refers to, or avails itself of styles, subjects, motifs, materials, strategies, and ideas” already recognizable to us. Fashion and art (and music, for that matter) have become do-over cultures, with designers and painters alike recycling the past (near, distant, and points in between) at such speeds it’s hard to keep up.
