    Shoulder pads - both sexes.
  • Just watch TOTP2 on BBC4 and see what the audience and presenters are wearing. I seem to remember blue eyeshadow, a lot of blusher, big hair - usually permed, leg warmers, big baggy tops and court shoes :eek::rotfl:
  • Waist high jeans and mullets :D

    Crimped hair too (big hair, obviously). Pixie boots. Those short hair comb things that you push in one way and back down the other. Fingerless lace gloves (Madonna influence). Hoopy neon earrings. Massive chunky belts - stretchy, or with things like chains on.


    I remember it like it was yesterday lol.
