something old

The prefix "retro-" means "backward" or "behind." It is commonly used to show something is old-fashioned or based on previous styles or trends.
Retro style is style that is consciously derivative or imitative of trends, music, modes, fashions, or attitudes of the recent past, typically 15-20 years old. Therefore there is no set time period, as 'retro' simply refers to imitating a trend from the past.
Something cool.
