80’S TREND

Mean shoulder pads, frilly little skirts, short minis, and one shoulder dresses with lots of glitz mean that the 80’s are back, and they are stronger than ever. A little more tailored, refined and slightly quieter (whew!) designs, these girls have grown up a bit from the loud, neon pants and cut up T’s celebrated during the real time period.

Poofy little tulle skirts seem to have more of a shape lately, while sequined dresses have a sophisticated print and design intent. Paired with thick, 6 inch high platforms, these girls are prepared to carry the weight of those oversized collars and heavy padded shoulders this time around.

Studded beading and asymmetrical patterns give this sweet little mini dress by Balmain a modern touch.
