The In & Out list for 1998
What's hot, what's not
(CNN) -- Hey there, hepcats! 1998 is rolling around, and the millennium is not far away. But when you look at all the retro fashions people are sporting -- not to mention the nostalgia-fests playing in theaters -- you may have some trouble figuring out just what decade we're in.
And then it's hard to tell which trends from 1997 are still groovy and which are now gauche. And which fads will have staying power? Those Hanson boys are making teenyboppers' hearts throbs now, but they may soon go the way of New Kids on the Block.
Realizing that it's not hip to be square, CNN Interactive offers the following list of what's In and what's Out:
