According to Oxford Dictionary,

Summary
Mullet was so popular before, but it looks bit funny today.
It often happens with fashion.
It was so cool but later on looks funny and odd.
On the other hand some fashion is cool forever.
For example Audrey Hepburn's old photos still look elegant and nice.
Even today many young people copy her style.
It is interesting that we change how we percieve things.
