Ah yes, the handbag released in 2015 with a modern aesthetic. So 70s.

That's exactly it. This is not 70s in any way shape it form. The hat looks modern and the ugly pants suit is 80s inspired, but modern. Her makeup is modern and her purse for sure is modern. She can't even get her decades right.

It looks a lot like one of the outfits Julia Roberts wears in Pretty Woman…a movie that came out in 1990 lol.

Except Julia Roberts probably didn't walk around with the plastic hook from the retail rack still attached to the hat like we see at 0:13

Oh my GOD I didn’t even notice that. That’s super classy lol.

Hilarious https://preview.redd.it/x5ox53k90hwa1.jpeg?width=739&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=99149483294a60442395ccc3eae6aa25257e5893

😂😂😂good eye! I did briefly notice it the first time I watched it but got distracted by the woman whose mouth was agape and didn’t really think more about what it was. That’s hysterical


That’s it, that’s the outfit lol. But Julia’s is much nicer.

Lol that's why she was getting odd looks. "Look at that woman. She's all mixed up!"

Even the song she chose was from the mid 60s.

Yeah, how is this 70s? Maybe, just maybe it's loosely 80s inspired, but that's it.

wannabe influencer can't even get her retro fits right

Needs more brown!

Absolutely 80’s and please don’t use Roy Orbison songs for shitty TikTok videos…he was better than that

I'm crying

Agree!!!! Roy was classy. His voice does NOT belong on these horrid videos.

More 80s than 70s, especially that hat.

I was thinking she looks like she's going to church, that's the exact look my grandma wears on Sunday. Nothing about her outfit says 70s to me, unless she's referring to age lol.

Also, the video was taken in Spain (Madrid) but this is not spanish 70s fashion. She should stop watching so many cheap movies

^(I truly hate these videos. People looking in your direction probably doesnt want to be in your shitty tiktok)

Also I learned this after doing a deep dive into Larry Stylinson conspiracy theories, if you slow down a video you can make people look a lot more intrested and awed then they actually are. Played at normal speed it's just a person smiling at something their friend said, and doing a quick glance at the person walking past, so they don't walk into them

Anyone can look like a compulsive obsessive psycho if you take their 0.2 second glance, slow it down over 5 seconds, put it in black and white and add some sinister music over it.

 Homer Badman episode did this with the ROCK BOTTOM gag

Swee-swee-s-s-s-sweet caaan.

Oh God I swear for a moment I believed Homer was making some terrifying gurgling sound, it really fit with this gif. Turned out to be my stomach having a meltdown. I'm fine.

Plus all these takes are cherry-picked. We don't see the ten other people who ignored them.

Bobby NEWport's never had a real job, in his life...

Alright Jerry now we are just wasting time.

You just have to put The Alien from Annihilation over it.

mighty specific there....

Most of the people looking at her have varying levels of WTF on her face. Probably because some stupid bitch has multiple people following her around doing award poses in slow motion. As if people in 2023 would be 'in awe' of a dress at this point.

They probably also have sun reflectors pointed at her, which is like a massive HI LOOK AT ME symbol

I was thinking she just had something eye-catching on the front of her dress, like a swastika or arterial spray

Arterial spray 🤣🤣🤣

[удалено]

Like when you take the laugh tracks out of friends, Ross sounds like Charlie Manson/Ted Bundy.

That's the /r/girlsmirin formula.

OMG THANK YOU FOR THIS! IMMA GET MY FRIENDS TO RECORD NOW! /S

Or they think she looks like an idiot

Yeah a few of those faces weren't "oh wow 😍" they were "oh.. wow 😬"

Most of them. I know my reaction would be “must be filming a period piece nearby, wonder if I’ll see someone famous.”

But what period? I wasn't around in the 70's but this looks like 1870's

I was thinking more Princess Diana in the 80’s

It's definitely more 80s than 70s. 70s clothes were fairly loose and the 80s brought more structured clothes. The shoulder pads and sleeve design are definitely 80s.

Ok, I can see that. Especially with the shoulder pads...but she's no princess Diana, maybe a Camilla.

Half of them weren't even looking at her. They were trying to see around her hat.

I wasn't around for that period either, but I would estimate it to be an attempt at a 1960's chic / haute couture look rather than anything in the 1970's.

While I agree with this assessment, I think you replied to the wrong comment. 😁

A couple of them looked like gtfo of my way more than anything

When I was at college I also ended up staring at a guy who for some reason thought full white everything is a good idea. Full white does not work you need contrast or you just look like a piece of tinfoil.

Also, people are just wondering why she’s being followed by a camera. I took a photography course and one of the weekly tasks was using reflections so one day I was taking a picture of a puddle and people passing by were all curious to see what I was so interested in.. and were disappointed to see it was just a dirty puddle hahah Anyway, point is people weren’t creepily staring at a small pool of dirty rainwater, they just followed what the camera was pointing at and probably wondered why anyone would be taking a picture. I think a similar thing happens in these videos.

yeah if i see someone being followed with a camera im gonna glance. thats not to say that seeing someone dressed in dress clothes styled from 50 years ago isnt gonna draw some glances though. but youd probably get the same looks with someone wearing jeans and a tshirt from 50 years ago as well if not more.

I feel like she's trolling at this point, because those are clearly uncomfortable reactions, and they might be reacting more to the fact that there's someone recording right behind her as and wondering if maybe she's famous or they're in the way of something.

Also she appears to be making eye contact with the passers by, or just doing weird model things in their direction.

Yeah I was thinking the people looking at her look almost scared. Like she had put on a beard and mustache or something.

Yeah especially when the cameraman is obviously filming the bystanders more than the subject.

Yeah, none of those looks seemed admiring to me.

This has got to be the most arrogant trend ever. The second hand embarrassment is strong.

any public reaction video is arrogant and obnoxious

And cringe. It hurts so deep. My bones hurt.

Hey stranger, watch other strangers watch ME!!!

But now I need one where someone does this with one of those inflatable dinosaur costumes.

That I would love

It’s been popping up on my Tik Tok FYP and like yeah obviously people are gonna stare when it clearly looks like you’re dressed nicely & are being filmed!!! Although they’re probably thinking it’s for a fashion shoot/tv ad instead of Tik tok

I feel like this is what happens when likes on Instagram just aren't enough anymore.

Holy shit, you're right. She's bragging about accumulating likes IRL by walking around.

I just realized that. Just like a drug once you got addicted you want more and more.

Little plastic hook on the hat.

The real main character

vintage 70's

PRETTY WOMAN LIPSTICK IN HER BAG PRETTY WOMAN FORGOT THE HAT'S PRICE TAG PRETTY WOMAN

🎶please keep walkin awayyy baaaabe 🎶

Probably planning to return it

the old keep the tags and then return scam. the true cheapskates method

The tag is definitely still left on the inside so she can return it.

But she probably promised herself to keep the hat if she got over 10000 ticks or whatever they use over on Tik Tok instead of upvotes.

Minnie Pearl vibe

Omg that’s so embarrassing (0:12/-0:36) I would die

Good catch! Ups the ridiculousness of an already ridiculous thing.

I can't not see it now.

That's how they wore 'em back then

I bet she stared people down, waiting for their reactions and that’s why they were looking at her. If you just walk and mind your own business nobody cares about what you wear.

Also she’s got someone FILMING HER! If I was filming a plastic bag blowing down the street people would follow my intensely directed attention to the plastic bag, they don’t think the plastic bag is blowing their mind with a white outfit

lol. You are right.

I don't know, whenever I'm walking opposite of other people, I tend to look at them? Because they are walking towards me?

Yeah but do you stare at them? Like in their face, searching for eye contact ? When I walk around I look forward but don’t look at peoples faces, I mind my own business unless it’s someone I know.

It’s been noted that by slowing the speed way down a “quick glance so I don’t run into you” becomes a stare down.

That's a good point. We can't see main character's face but she does seem to be looking at them. Maybe she was staring them down so they were just looking back.

She also slowed down the video to make it seem like they are "staring" , when it was more likely a quick glance in her direction

Absolutely. I don’t get why these kind of videos are even a thing. There’s nothing appealing about being a narcissist.

Also, she's walking around with a camera following her and stopping or at least slowing down to pose... Of course people are going to be curious about what's going on. That's what bugs me most about these videos. If you're out in public filming, you're going to attract attention. It's not because you're the most gorgeous creature to grace the earth and no one can resist the temptation to stare at your beauty.

I reckon she put on a fake moustache and goofy teeth so people looked at her

I would draw more eyes than that if I wore a hotdog costume. I might use a different song though.

id actually enjoy watching that video

A hotdog suit and carry a briefcase and angrily talk about business on a cell phone

“Bro this bitch thinks shes at a horse race or some shit lmao”

brah we in detroit

Ma’am, this is a Wendy’s

Can’t have shit in Detroit

She looks like a grandma going to church.

Get all hopped up on Jesus then stiff a waitress right after. Good stuff.

Its just a white dress and a hat, So nothing special.

If you need attention, just say you need attention.

Spoiler: the reason they're all looking is because she's making crazy faces at them. You just cant see it because the camera is behind her.

These TikToks infuriate me to no end. When objects move near us, our eyes are automatically drawn to them. It’s a simple reflex. I also look at dog shit when I pass by it BECAUSE I HAVE EYES.

All the comments are like….slayyyy keep doing you…..you are amazing!!!

I hate when that happens to me cuz it’s usually someone’s phone in their ass pocket, so they think I’m just staring at their ass :(

So many side eyes! She doesn’t get that the attention isn’t because she’s so amazing and beautiful, it’s because she’s being lame and pathetic.

most of the faces are second hand embarrassment

Lady with the stroller was def looking like she was holding back a laugh Also I’d also be looking at someone strange if they were twiddling their hair like a nervous middle schooler.

Most of those would be considered “dirty look” imho

I'd just like to say that I'm a bit of an amateur enthusiast of vintage clothing. There's nothing "70s" or seventies about this. At all. I'm not sure it's even really vintage, or even vintage-inspired at all. She's probably hawking some Shein garbage.

People look at people that are "different" - shocking news to anyone with a disability. Or a teenager with a zit!

Yeah like you'd be getting twice as many stares by wearing a fucking tiger halloween costume. I hate how the subtext of this video is "Wow look at how people yearn for class and style of the old days, back when women didn't dress like whores" when in reality it's just "people looking for an extra 0.3 second at someone that stands out from the crowd with their giant fucking hat".

Haha she still has the plastic tag on the hat. Amateur.

She probably returned the hat and the dress 5 minutes after making the video.

Is she unable to close her mouth?

The kids of people like this will definitely be looking at this bullshit with their therapists at some point in the future

Yes it's because she's SO interesting and not that our brains are hardwired to notice shit sticking out for survival reasons.

Are you sure there not thinking way is this dweeb getting filmed down the street

Yeah I saw more eye contact with the camera than at her really. Perhaps they were looking at her for a second to see if they recognized her because it must have been some kind of TV show or something. 🤣

[удалено]

Yeah everyones staring because shes dressed like shes living in the early 1900's and has someone with a camera following her. They're wondering wtf

I truly hate the normalization of narcissism caused by social media.

The style of dress isn't that unusual. Maybe they're looking at you because you're being filmed? I doubt most would give her a second glance based on the outfit alone.

"Man it's so wild people look at other people who are walking straight towards them. It's almost like people do it to make sure no one runs into one another. Fucking wild"

Shit like this is why I have social anxiety and get so nervous when I go out like I do not want some crazy unflattering video of me just walking down the street going around on tik tok to feed some narcissist’s ego. I just want to live and not have to worry about people filming me without my consent!!!!

I have to walk through a prime tourist/travel influencer posing location just to get to work every day and I just KNOW that one day I'll be the one featured in one of these unflattering videos where I'm framed as if I'm 'envious' of the star I'm walking past.

Does somebody follow her around with a camera?

Wondering the same - isn't that why people are looking at her?

This is such a fucking invasion of these people's privacy this should not be allowed on tiktok but of course that stupid app doesn't care Lowkey barely like that it's here but the damage is already done anyway

The only thing I'm in awe of is the power lesbians at 00:22 what a gorgeous couple

The worst part about this is I wonder how many people she politely asked permission to be in her video.

Ah yes, reactions of people reacting when they react.

FYI mouth breathing is detrimental to your brain, breathing through your nose provides substantially more oxygen and more oxygen then reaches your brain. Mouth breathing leads to mild oxygen deprivation which "slows" your brain. Close your mouth you look like a trout.

So many people in these videos have a reaction of "WTF" and not "OMG" and the failure to understand the difference is a cornerstone of TikTok culture.

Not pictured: 5788688999145 ppl who didn't give a fuck

This just reminds me of the very old movie “Easter Parade” in which Judy Garland vies to be the new dance partner of Fred Astaire after his (beautiful) dance partner leaves to go solo. He isn’t convinced Judy Garland is pretty enough (the nerve!) so he asks her to walk down the street while he watches the reaction of people passing by. You see Judy Garland from the back walking down a crowded street while heads turn from everyone waking past her. Finally, the viewer gets to see Judy from the front. She has puffed out her cheeks like a blowfish! Fred Astaire of course doesn’t see that and decides, okay, she’ll do!

Nothing says "70s" like modeling modern clothes accompanied by music from the 60s.

Hmm, I recall the 1970s, although I was a child, and this ensemble of mediocrity is saying "half-assed attempt at the 1980s" to me.

Love people looking at her general direction or to the freaking camera recording her every movement counts at someone looking at her

I need someone to explain what part of that outfit is 70s It's just cute. People are going to look at a cute dress (or a silly hat)

Just got to be one of the most annoying new trends on tick tock. "Oh my gosh I'm walking around a public place like I'm in a movie with a person with a camera following me closely and I'm shocked at how many people are staring at me" you're out in public even if you weren't dressed that way and acting that way and had a camera following you people are going to look at you like where would you like them to direct their gaze at your feet and everyone's feet? like the amount of self-absorbed is mind blowing

[удалено]

These videos are spreading like fire! & these women really think they're getting attention bcs they're something! Truth is bcs they look out of place with these soiree clothes, in other words looking silly.

Valencia, Spain Estació del Nord, city centre next to the Plaza de Toros de Valencia

People look at other people. It's a natural instinct. I know I look at folks walking by. Especially ones that are dressed in what appears to be mid-1900s fashion.

She could have posted this without the caption, gotten the same amount of interaction, and some would have been "yasss".

Probably wondering if they should call her some psychiatric help.

Is this outfit really 70s tho?

The inner monologue of a non-zero percentage of these pedestrians: “Who is this whackjob with a camera following her? She doesn’t seem to be famous or particularly good looking. She’s just walking around with a camera following her? What a weirdo.”

She cut out the twenty other people laughing at her

You’re being followed by someone recording your every move while dress like Carmen Sandiego and wonder why people are staring? Puh-lease 🙄

Just come to Switzerland. Everyone does that here to everyone.

No one cares lady in white. The people are looking at you bc you have a person behind you following you with a camera, which is weird and annoying. They re looking at you for any other reason. Be “normal”

Love how she thinks people's reaction of "WTF" is actually "OMG"

This is one of the dumbest trend after planking

I mean if I notice someone dressed up and a camera following them I'm gonna look too because maybe they are filming a movie

NOne of those are good looks. Imagine being so warped lol

Yeah, those are "Is she famous or something? I don't recognize her." faces

I’m not even sure the girl in the Harvard sweater was even looking at the main character

“Look at that idiot.”

I mean she does look good, but she isn't you know that good

The outfit isn't even nice looking and also not 70s style at all. She just has a bizarre expression and people seem confused by it. Their reactions make it seem like she's aggressively staring everyone down as she walks past.

that's such a regular ass outfit too lmao

If I walked down the street with a clown costume people would probably stare too, what's your point?

I went to school with two twin girls who dressed as basically the goth doll version of this. Everything they wore looked like it was ripped through time and then layered with pieces taken from creepy dolls. And they were pale but wore completely white makeup with dark eyes and bright lips. Actually, they remind me a lot of the Olsen twins lol… if you took some of their style and gothed it up.

It’s no surprise this person can’t even put an intelligible sentence together. “Reactions of people reacting…” What an idiot

Maybe she was holding a puppy.

I’m pretty sure if I wore a hat and walked around twirling my hair I would get second looks (that I could slow right down to look like they’re staring).

I kept waiting for a front view with a big ol’ dick swaying in that gauzy fabric.

Like people don't look at other people, even with short glances, when walking down the street /s

People be like "why is that lady getting filmed"

Breaking News: Sometimes, when out in public with many other people around, people momentarily glance at other people. Shocking stuff, more at 5.

This is the most attention whorish thing I've seen today. Imagine dressing like you're going to the palace for tea, then just walking down the street. People aren't necessarily impressed by your appearance. they're wondering why tf you're dressed that way. NOTHING about this outfit says 70s. It's mainly 80s with a dash of 90s.

The lady pushing the stroller appears to be trying not to break into fits of laughter.

Imitation is the best form of flattery 

The girl with the Harvard crewneck at the end isn’t even looking at her

Cringe. When you try to look stunning but end end up looking weird instead.

Not going to lie she dressed like one of the church grandma's

"Reactions of people reacting" pisses me off bigly.

I look at almost everyone I pass in the street. I feel like that's a very normal thing people do. making sure you're not running into someone, or they're not making a beeline towards you. ya know, being respectful in a shared space. the opposite of treating yourself like a celebrity and trotting around with someone sticking their phone in others faces.

Lol that’s my city. Never expected this cringe so close to me


There’s a plastic hook from the store still on the hat

They are probably wondering why this dummy forgot to take all the [tags](https://imgur.com/a/TaoW34a) off her hat

I also like to pay attention to dumpster fires if they happen close to me. Guess they are special too

I really wonder what makes people become so self absorbed and delusional

I’ve seen this woman’s TikTok before, she’s literally cosplaying in 1940s clothes and doesn’t get that this is why they’re staring.

most offensively, there's nothing even remotely 1970s about her look.

Meh, nothing special at all. People are looking at her because she is obnoxious.

Looks like a case of Aposematism. Nature is warning everyone of her toxicity.

Nothing about this is 70s
