Trickle across and Trickle up theory

TRICKLE-ACROSS THEORY Proponents of the trickle across theory claim that fashion moves horizontally between groups on similar social levels.                    In this theory, there is little lag time between adoption from one group to another.

EXAMPLE:-  pea jackets, khaki pants,leather jackets, punk look,t-shirts,ripped jeans. RIPPED JEANS KHAKI PANT LEATHER JACKET PUNK LOOK T-SHIRT
