When ripped jeans made the trend market a few years ago, those who lived through the 80s were
ecstatic. While some haven’t realized it, 80s clothing is back! Today's teens find the clothing
unfamiliar and stylish, while their parents find a familiarity in what their children are wearing.
Today's 80s clothes are fashion-forward and modified to meet the demands and styles of
today.
Leggings/Tights
What could be more comfortable
than lounging around in leggings? Not much! Today's women and teens can revert back to 80s
clothing, with leggings and tights. Women are pairing interesting patterned tights under jean
skirts and dresses. Leggings are also being worn under skirts, dresses and as pants paired with
long shirts. They are fashionable, inexpensive and comfortable!
Jeans
While jeans have been a trendy
item to own for years, they've changed with the times. Bell-bottom jeans were quite popular in
the 60s and 70s. For 80s clothing styles however, jeans got
tighter and more tapered. The legs were all drawn in to taper at the ankle. Today, these jeans
are being labeled as "skinny jeans" and are selling like hotcakes! These slim jeans are very
familiar to the hot styles of 80s clothes, but with a new name.
Shoes
Shoe stores all over the
country are selling knockoffs of the very familiar 1980 style shoes, Jellies. These shoes made
from plastic were hotter than flip flops in the 80s and are making a comeback today. Today's
styles are a bit frugal in design, as they aren't as constricting to the feet. More comfortable
and in a wide range of colors, they’re a hot trend for today's teens.
