More and more we are seeing fashions and styles from the 1980s re-emerging as on trend and 'fashionable' looks. We have all tampered with an 80s style or two, be it leg-warmers, shoulder pads or a wild animal print, but looks that originated from this decade are taking over the fashion world and indeed our wardrobes.
The most in-demand look presently which became popular as a major trend late nineteen seventies and came into its own during the early 1980s is tailoring and mens clothing worn by women. Both androgynous and mod designs are cool, elegant and can also be surprisingly sexy. As we embark on the next 'season' of fashion expect to see many more A/W styles to incorporate plaid, checks, oversized mens jackets, brogues and even berets and flat caps.
Dressed in vintage could hardly make this look easier or even more unique so now it's time to purchase a vintage tweed jacket, some loose fitting vintage shirts and also a pair of brogues or 'Chelsea boots'.
Do not worry about this look appearing too dull or even masculine since you can easily glam up with some jewelry and soft feminine make-up and mix and match oversized or mens jackets & shirts with a pair of skinny denim jeans and heels or tiny shorts and stockings and suspenders! Have fun with this great style and contrast ties and flat caps with diamond stud earrings and a stunning clutch purse.
To really embrace this fantastic style watch out for classic pieces such as an Yves Saint Laurent 'Smoking Tuxedo' or Ralph Lauren edged blazer however there are many more affordable alternatives available. Don't be afraid to raid your boyfriends (or better still Grandad's!) wardrobe and mix and match ladies and gents pieces. Start by purchasing a few vintage tailored pieces, the quality will be so significantly superior to many high street alternatives, and play about with various looks until you find your own unique 'dapper' style.
