80s Fancy Dress tips
If you take a look at the music industry fashion of the 1980s
it will give you plenty of pointers for your 80s fancy
dress.
Fashion of the 80s moved on from the 1970 by transforming the
outrageous harsh Punk styles into softer, classic tall uggs
clearance, friendlier high street clothing. Materials
were mixed up. Madonna softened the punk style with a softer and
sexier look of nets, gloves and chiffon. Silk and harsh
netting created the eighties glam look.
Jewellery – Chains, studs, cheap ugg ultra tall
boots, several earrings worn in one ear, big hair,
multi-coloured hair, bold nail varnish and large amounts of
jewellery were all 80s fashion trends.
Coloured Hair spray-Non-permanent spray-on hair dye was used in
bright or florescent colours of pinks, reds, plum, coquette uggs slippers
outlet, greens and blues. Spray it on to match your outfit and
then wash it out straight away ready for the next
colour.
Body shape – Health and fitness were the rage and took over from
skinny. It was fashionable to have a body shape and keep it
in shape . The eighties gave us the workout video (and also
beta!!) and many TV and film stars produced their own exercise
regime for the screen. Headbands became a fashion item after
Olivia Newton John released her ets get physical

outfit of headband, lycra pants and top, with acrylic leg warmers
then go for an 80s fancy dress to stun them all! It a
fun look and who knows may start you off an exercise
regime!!
Jeans – People still remember the Levi jean advert in 1985 when
Nick Kamen stripped off his 501 in the launderette. This
Levi jean advert helped promote the blue jeans and we all started
spending over £ 20 for our jeans!
A pair of Levis with trainers can be a very easy 80s fancy dress if
you want to keep your outfit low key. Ladies can top it off
with a soft ruffled blouse romantic style and the men can wear the < br /> Miami Vice no collar style shirt and sneakers.
New Romantics-The New Romantic look that was styled by Vivienne
Westwood used frills for a softer look. Princess Diana, Duran Duran
and Adam Ant often wore new romantics. This moved on to
become the pirate look of the 80s fashion. The men wore waistbands,
cummerbunds and jackets with velvet lapels.
