80s fashion was heavily influenced by
the music and movie industry. Some
would even say that it was the creation
of MTV that revolutionized fashion in
the 1980s. TVs were becoming more
common in the average household, and
teens were finding themselves watching
and gathering inspiration from the gaudy
and outrageous style shown in music
videos.
All of this touched and raised a need
among people - self expression of their
creativity and individuality. It was a time
to find themselves. And as the hip hop
culture grew in the beginning of the
80s, fashion became more influenced
by bright colours, oversized clothes and
‘excessorized’ outfits.
Many people would say that he 1980s
was the decade known as ‘the time that
forgot fashion’. Compared to the previous decade, the 1970s - people’s style
reversed from loose bottoms and tight
tops, to loose tops and tight pants. 80s
fashion was bolder, sexier and gaudier
and paved out a more experimental way
of style that would have given people of
the 50’s and 60s a heart attack!
