OK, what eighties clothes are back in?

[Caligyulea]

Following on from the other thread.

I was delighted to hear that eighties clothes are back in. But every time someone mentions a garment, I think "hmm, yes, maybe not."

Surely there's something that's nice?

nope, everything from 80's fashion was utterly revolting.

OH, I hated 80's fashion.!
All those skinny jeans, I got anorexia, then was in early teens. If I felt like that then, will deffo not be wearing it now!
Loved DMs though.........

Did skinny jeans the first time round, but no no no now I'm afraid!

Come to think of it, I can't actually remember a garment I wore which I loved and which I would consider wearing now.

Remember them hideous batwing jumpers?

And what about fluorescent socks and jellybeans?

Ewwwwww

batwing
leggings
puffball - tulip skirt now daaaahling
skinny jeans

Just thought - legwarmers.

Eminently practical. Don't care how naff they are.

I don't remember jellybeans

Jellybeans = plastic shoes

footless tights

its all wrong if your over 30 - and actually did it first time round - cardigans with glitter is the way to go - ala lorraine kelly

Link to glittery cardigans? Sounds a bit of a questionable style statement...

Disagree about the over 30 thing....look at VB, Madonna et al.

Jumper dresses also back in, very chic, lots of black and white hoops/stripes are in.

azzedine alaia lycra dresses for skinny wee things

Ooh, jumper dresses. Warm and practical. Just right for middle aged frumpies.

I think Lorraine kelly should go straight to the mumsy thread with her wee cardies

vb and madonna dont count - becuase they are good lookin and skinny. the average joe is dog ugly with kid sick in their hair and worried about paying the gas bill.

only occasionally do you get the beautiful ( as popularly recognised as opposed to eye of beholder)

I had those horrible stretch skinny jeans by Oddball. My mum used to say, 'You're not going out like that are you? You look like Max Wall.'

I wore them with burgundy Tukka boots. Eurch!

I had tukka nboots What were we thinking?

Lord knows Noddy. What a waste of a nice young body and figure eh?

I had Doc Martens. Loved 'em. Felt 'ard.

actually bought some doc Martens again last weekend(dd says i look like a clown,well i am a size 9) and back in skinny jeans! Never keen on those big boot leg Osmond style!

I have a lovely puffball skirt, but is not too puffy. Was born in 1984 so maybe young enough to geta way with it. Went clubbing on Sat, everyone was in minis, leggings and flats.

Chrismurfgirl,1984!!!!!!!!!! Oh my god i am feeling old,I didnt have my FIRST child till i was 36 and i am obviously older than that now

I loved drainpipe jeans and burgundy flight jackets, oh and donkey jackets. Had a ra-ra skirt but never wear skirts now so even if I did like them, I wouldn't wear one.
