80s "fashion". I don't know what happened that decade, what you all were snorting. The big hair, the glittery colours, the shoulder-pads, the mullets, ugh vile.
By far the very worst decade in history for "fashion". I can't even write "fashion" in the same sentence as "The 80s" without quotation marks because of how bad it was.
My Mom, who was late teens/early 20s in the 80s, naturally loves it. I see old photos of her when she had her perm and I cringe.
Check out '70s fashions.
I see 70s as "80s Lite", or rather, since the 80s came after, 80s "fashion" is basically the 70s on acid with glitter thrown all over it.
They look quite similar to me, the 70s just had somewhat less colour. That said, I had this conversation with someone on this forum before (can't remember who) and they said it wasn't like that in reality. I'm just going off what I see in the media.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
