Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The 80s in fashion was influenced by singers, actors and actresses, movies and TV series. Madonna and Michael Jackson will forever be remembered for the trends they created in that decade and their fashion sense. This book discusses trends and styles that emerged mainly the Valley Girl, Material Girl and Thriller looks. Also included in the book are a description of other styles, such as shoulder pads, leg warmer, miniskirt, tracksuit, and leotard. Finally, models of that decade were slowly making their way into pop culture and included Brooke Shields, Christie Brinkley, Elle Macpherson, Paulina Porizkova, Carol Alt, and more.
