As for fashion disasters...has to be the shellsuit tracksuits !!
How many drunk women have wailed that walking down the streets?
Fashion Faux Pas has to be the Puffball Skirt.
Thank god I'm a guy so didn't have to wear one of those stupid things.
Fashion faux pas: pixie boots.
Worst fashion has to be my Boy George look. I'd make my poor mum plait my hair with ribbons and wear huge white t-shirts and a hat.
Still, I thought I looked brilliant!
Fashion faux pas - where to start, shoulder pads and hair got bigger & bigger and boys & girls around the world had mullet haircuts - thought they looked so cool at the time - tons of hairspray used to hold it in place - I'm only 4ft 10inch tall but my hair alone took me over 5ft in the 80's!!!
Loved Pixie Boots though would wear them in a flash!
Wind of Change: Scorpions. A soundtrack which will always be a reference point for the changes going on in Eastern Europe and the rusting of the Iron Curtain in the summer of 1991.
Fashion faux pas: dressing neutrally and, looking back, wishing I had been part of some kind of 'far out' , bad taste 80s/90s fashion code!
I thought these bands looked ridiculous at the time and had no intention of copying their style. I'd like a chance to dress up and behave as I should have done and sing my heart out to these cheesy tracks of my youth.
Did like the music though!
Bought pair tried to walk fell flat on my face:o:o:o
I tried few times pratice but fell ,one of my aunty's said she liked the shoes so she I gave the shoes to her and can you guess what she too fell flat on her face:o:o
We saw the posters etc for this at the weekend outside the theatre - looks great!
80's hair had a very curly awful perm! (thought it was soooo cool at the time!)
but still love the 80's ..... growing up through it! ) (age 10 to 20)
aaarrrrrrrr........
Don't Stop Believing - Journey
I Don't Want To Miss A Thing - Aerosmith
and finally
Everything I Do - Bryan Adams
As for fashion faux pas - big hair, those awful nylon baggy trousers called parachute pants and anything neon.
I had leather trousers :eek:
I had a white ruffled shirt that came with a red cotton belt and I used to wear the belt around my head!
My hair was so backcombed and hairsprayed that there could have been birds nesting in it and I wouldn't have noticed and I had to be really careful about going anywhere near an open flame.
I wore legwarmers with high heels, yes, leg warmers and high heels! What was I thinking!
I made my mother spend £85 on a Katherine Hamnett Choose Life t-shirt because Wham had them, but they'd sold out so I had to have a Save the Whales one and I didn't care about the whales and I spent £85! OMG! That was a lot of money then!
I have so many more, when I think about the fashion monstrosities that I wore, I'm so embarassed!
My worst fashion faux pas was probably a black half leather, half suede jacket, with fringing coming down from the sleeves and padded shoulders.....:o
Oh, the memories LOL :eek::D
Still anyway whom ever won have a fab time
