35,000 BC: The first erotic cave art is made in Cussac, France
Beauty ideals have changed somewhat over the millennia. Even 37,000 years ago, Frenchmen were preoccupied with women, food, and clothing. Not much have changed since?!?
1516: Reinheitsgebot beer purity law
By banning “preservatives” like soot and poisonous mushrooms, the Reinheitsgebot paved the way for an era when the WORST thing that’ll happen from a few too many Becks is a wicked hangover?!?
1955: Chevy introduces the small-block V8
Fuel economy watch out, muscle cars are back. Much of the credit (or blame) for that goes to this engine. The motor has since been used in everything from Corvettes to pickups, meaning it’s the ultimate engine to fix up yourself?!?
1981: Jessica Alba is born
1987: Gordon Gekko makes a phone call
It was Michale Douglas, as Gordon Gekko in Wall Street, who first made the cell phone cool. Gekko used his bricklike Motorola DynaTAC to remind Bud Fox that “money never sleeps.” But it was that moment when a geeky novelty device became something a style-conscious guy could actually consider using?!?
1991: The dawn of the 16-bit gaming console

2008: The birth of Fashicon

Fashicon brings the latest fashion brands from across the world, together with a reliable and trusted service making the only online destination for menswear. Oh, and did we mention you can avoid the trip to the shops?!?
