I liked 80’s fashion for its boldness, fearlessness, and sometimes rebellious nature. It was an era in fashion where everyone didn’t look like they stepped off the set of an old Hollywood movie. 80’s fashion was about change. It was a time when women were really starting to wear the pants not just at home but at the office, when good girls wanted to go bad, and a time when girls wanted to just have fun and rock out in their pink leg warmers.
You can look at just about any designer collection and see the return of 80’s style.
Back in 2009 Balmain had everyone in a frenzy over his strong shouldered jackets. Wide brim hats were the major must have accessory this past summer, For fall 2011 brooches will be one of the ultimate accessories to have. Although leg warmers are on hiatus, leggings are still reigning supreme.
Whether you loved or loathed the 80’s designers are bringing them back one piece at a time.
D&G brings back 80’s punk rock, Band of Outsiders revisits the late 80’s grunge look which became more popular in the early 90’s, and Stella McCartney goes peplum crazy for fall 2011.
What were some of your favorite 80’s styles?
