My High School is having a 1980's themed dance this Friday and I still need to get some clothes for it Anyone know firsthand what kind of stuff was popular then? I've used the Google but I'd like to verify before I go out looking for stuff

Any help is appreciated :D:D

My girlfriend was thinking something like this [image loading]

Is this 80's style? I'm not sure but if it is, they wear a wide assortment of outfits that you can choose from.

The 3 way is more like 1990ish.

Watch the Karate Kid and wear what Ralph Macchio does during the dance. That's real 80s.

If you have photo albums of relatives or parents, look at those see what they are wearing, who knows maybe they still have it trapped in the closet somewhere!

Need way more neon / pastel colors.

80s dress in a nutshell: Bright colors, acid washed or skinny jeans (feel free to roll em up a few rolls at the bottom), white shoes.

actually it looks like you need something more fancy. Lol.

Puffy padded shoulders for the ladies and leather jackets some sort of neon knitwear for the men. Yes, it was that bad

Here's some more impressions:

Basically, just watch some movies from the eighties. The hairstyle is important, and clothes were usually cheesy and colorful.
