05 Aug Material Girl: Our Journey Back To ’80s Style
The sequins, the shine, the big hair. For some, the 80’s were truly the best of ages. For us, it was the music. For some, it was the fashion. A decade marked by bold style, shocking colors, and rather strange silhouettes, the ’80s were a time to experiment with big and bold statements. Between the permed hair, the ripped tights, and leather, some of my all-time favorite bands made their mark, while women dressed for success in oversized blazers that… Beetlejuice is all I will say. Nevertheless, there were moments of true genius in ’80s style that still resonate in today’s fashion scene. Enjoy this photo homage to 80’s style.
