Other than
the diverse hair trends, the 80s fashion was also characterized by different
fabric trends throughout the decade.
Actually, fabrics were the greatest trendsetters in this fashion. Most fabrics especially those worn by women
ranged from horrid styles to classically sexy trends with the latter being
common among celebrities and artists. One of the most common types of fabric in this
fashion was the metallic material fabrics that were threaded using gold
threads. These outfits were a favorite
night and party time fabric because they sparkled under dance lights in clubs
and other entertainment joints.
The 80sfashion was exceptionally impressive as compared to fashions in the previous
decades. The clothes worn in this
fashion had a strong contrast and classic juxtaposition in colors such as black
and white. While the present day fashion
is greatly diversified, most of its roots are in the 80s fashion.
