80 era Idea's

[Justin24]

So the company I am being contracted out by (They make internet security and anti-virus programs) is throwing a holiday party next month and it's a flashback to the 80's theme. So give me some Ideas of what to wear.

acid washed jeans.

Or you could go the Miami Vice route - khakis and loafers w/o socks. A bright tee and khaki blazer.

Have fun!

Go preppy, that might be the easiest outfit to scrounge up these days -- pastel polo shirt with the color flipped up (extra points if it has an insignia), white or very light Docker-type pants (pegged and rolled on the bottom) and white slip-ons or boat shoes. And don't forget the Ray-Bans with the neon cord around your neck.

Dress up like Kurt Cobain and say you're from the future.

A lot of the people in my area still dress like that sans the neon cord. Just more proof that Connecticut has the largest population of douchebags anywhere in the country.

I like the acid wash jeans idea, and tuck them into your boots. A mullet would help too.

Wear a 'Frankie says Relax' shirt.

 

[RedRocksU2]

I hate this topic because it put "Wake Me Up Before You Go Go" in my head and I can't get rid of it.

[Trinity3000]

MULLET!! If it's good enough for Bono...

How about a skinny leather tie?

 

[TranceEnding]

shoulder pads

 

[Slipstream]

Any jacket(preferably denim) that has zippers at odd angles and slim fitting jeans rolled up at the bottom.

I'm still trying to figure out why every other party I hear about these days is 80's themed. What the hell happened to originality/regular-old present-day-themed parties.

THANKS A LOT, BEAV. I'm trying to write my final draft about the historical methods of Thucydides, and now I've got that song stuck in my head. ALONG WITH THAT SCENE FROM ZOOLANDER.

 

[RedRocksU2]

Leg warmers

Well, it makes sense because Thucydides did write: "The cause of all these evils was the lust for power arising from greed and ambition; and from these passions proceeded the violence of parties once engaged in contention of a careless whisper. Wake me up before you go go. And do the jitterbug into my heart."

just wait until 2010 and beyond.... when we, 90's kids/teenagers begin to rule the world
