What is the 80's??
I am going on a walk to raise awareness for aids this Sunday, an the group I'm going with are all dressing "80's", so my question is: what did people wear in the 80's?!

Heavily stonewashed or acidwashed jeans, maybe with a few rips in them, or parachute pants if you can find some. Roll up the sleeves on your short sleeve t-shirt. Wear hi-top basketball shoes with the laces untied.

80's is easy. Walk into a second hand store blindfolded, grab some misc stuff, put it all together and it should clash real nice. Bonus points for:
a really bright coat to wear over the black shirt:
shutter shades:
Acid wash jeans;
Pretty much anything from Saved by the Bell would work:
OOPS! I mean:
Even better, don't forget to accessorize with an old Pager or a Zach Morris phone.
Oh, and DON'T FORGET TO PEG YOUR PANTS!

Acid wash jeans for sure
Loud Suspenders
High tops
Maybe a polo shirt with a popped collar
I used to rock some really cool Vuarnet sunglasses with the rope holder back in the 80s
Plastic frames with mirror lenses
Also a Swatch watch is a must

Can i point out out that saved by the bell was very early 90's? I suggest finding a VW camper, robbing the badge on the front and wearing with a chain?
Tbh, if you want an 80's look, look no further than your average Camaro driver.....
