Elle Macpherson effortlessly combines three big 80s trends in one fantastic look. The velvet jacket with the oversized shoulder pads looks amazing, and the mini skirt paired with black tights adds to the overall style. It’s a shame that 50 denier tights, which later became a staple for working women, weren’t really popular in the 80s. We feel sorry for the girls of that era.
Princess Diana was the ultimate style icon of the 80s, and this picture shows us why.
She looks amazing in that puff sleeve blouse with a paintbrush print, even though it reminds us a bit of 101 Dalmatians. The waist belt was a popular accessory in the 80s, and thanks to Jane Fonda workouts, everyone had tiny waists and wore their clothes super tight. Her oversized retro sunglasses also add to her chic look.
The Breakfast Club has all the classic characters you’d find in a teen movie: the jock, the awkward goth, the popular princess, the rule-breaker, and the geek. And guess what? Each of these characters has an amazing wardrobe too! From classic sweats to double denim and varsity jackets, their outfits perfectly capture the favorite style trends of the 80s.
