What is 'modern and swanky' soon dates, and looks tired and out of fashion.

Post war town planners thought everyone from the slums would love living in 'modern and swanky' tower blocks. They didn't.

Most people are traditionalists, and don't forget what is modern and fashionable soon becomes unfashionable by it's very nature.
