If you were fashion conscious during the 1980′s, you can’t help but remember these ultra flamboyant 80′s costumes which drove the disco scene. These costumes were definitely not for the shrinking violet type! If you’re unfamiliar with the style, let’s take a look at the quintessential 80′s costume. Large hats, decorated with feathers, large and brightly colored plastic flowers were also cool for some 80′s costume devotees.
As with every other component of the 80′s costume, colors ranged from bright to brighter to day-glo. Primary colors were essential to the right look. Think canary yellow, hot pink and fire engine red.
To showcase the boots, contrasting colors of opaque stockings were a necessity. Now for the dress. The colors were still brilliant, but this is where the costume acquired variety. This garment is where the costume became individualized. Rock star looks featured everything from Marilyn Monroe glamor to slinky fake lizard fabrics interspersed with a little metallic threading.
Outrageous ballerina-styled costumes, featuring a brilliantly colored bodice and nylon net mid-thigh – not mini – skirt also found favor with the 80′s costume crowd. Mini dresses, with long bell bottom sleeves and gigantically patterned fabrics were yet another variation.
Other men tried to out-do his woman’s costume, sporting a brilliant yellow, patent leather, zip-up suit with perhaps a bright red trim at neck and pant hem.
