The Flashy Eighties: Neon Colors and Power Dressing

Fashion Trends of the 80s

The fashion trends of the 80s were marked by bold, bright colors and power dressing. Neon colors were extremely popular, with bright pinks, greens, and blues taking center stage. This trend was reflected in everything from clothing to accessories, with neon-colored earrings, bracelets, and belts being a common sight.

Power Dressing

Power dressing was also a huge trend in the 80s, with women opting for suits and structured clothing that exuded power and authority. This trend was seen in the corporate world, as women began to break into traditionally male-dominated professions.

The power suit was the epitome of this trend, with women wearing tailored jackets with padded shoulders and high-waisted pants. This look was completed with bold, oversized jewelry and high heels.

Popular fashion icons of the 80s included Madonna, Michael Jackson, and Princess Diana, all of whom embraced the bold, flashy trends of the decade.
