What was the style of women s clothing in the United States from the 80s to the early 90s?

In my opinion, from today's perspective, women's clothing in the 80s was really a bit outdated compared to other eras. They all wore thick steel hair and large ear loops. He is very bold in the color of his clothes, but he doesn't know how to match colors.

Clothes with high shoulder pads are popular. I've seen all the 007 movies, only Timothy Dalton's two versions of the girls are not **, and it's not that they don't**, but at that time in the 80s, there was really a lack of softness. Of course that's my opinion.

In fact, the name of the costume is very abstract. Just one style.

Probably not. Gothic in front, Renaissance in rear.

It seems to be ......Neo-Renaissance style variations.

At that time, I heard a friend talk about it.

Should be.

Wow, if you go to watch the American drama at that time, you won't know it.

At that time, Western fashion trends were supposed to be very luxurious, and they were also relatively cumbersome.

Women's magazine advertisements in the 1960s, influences from fashion icons Jackie Kennedy, Brigitte Bardot, and Mary Quant in the '60s, knee-length dresses, miniskirts, and doll collar dresses all became fashion trends at the time.

Mainly heavy dresses, men are suits, women are a lot of skirts lined with outer lining, really super good-looking, absolutely, the fabrics of that era are very beautiful cotton texture.

The clothing styles of the 50s of the 20th century in the United States are as follows:

1. New look

On February 17, 1947, Christian Dior launched a collection of fashions named after "Corolla" in Paris, a design that can be said to have shocked the whole world! Almost all the world's ** make headlines about it. Someone even exclaimed:

It was Dior's "New Look" that truly ended the Second World War and restored beauty and tranquility to people's hearts that had been battered by the war.

The new style has the noble and elegant clothing style of the upper class women of the 19th century, but it is reinterpreted using new techniques and new design techniques, and the femininity expressed is in sharp contrast to the masculinity of the war.

The sleeves are usually up to the forearm**, the so-called 3-4 sleeves, lined with long gloves. The rounded and smooth natural shoulder line, the tall ** arranged with a bra, connected to the slender waist, and the wide hem long skirt supported by the skirt support, longer than the calf, 20cm off the ground, with stiletto heels, the whole shape is very elegant and feminine.

2. Cocktail packing.

This is a new style introduced by Christian Dior in 1948, and the main points of its design are the lower open collar at the chest, the suspenders at the shoulders near the arms, and the chest and shoulders are more exposed.

The neckline is in a V-shape or heart-shaped, and the skirt is either an A-line skirt or a straight one. The skirt is calf-length and slightly shorter than the formal evening dress, making it ideal for earlier social events and is a garment that falls somewhere between casual and formal evening dresses.

3. Windbreaker jacket.

Long, loose-fitting jackets are also a signature of the season, but choose leather or other structured fabrics to create a strong line, while the belt accentuates the femininity and echoes the sleeveless waist-cinching dress underneath.

4. Skirts. There are two types of skirts, one that wraps tightly and the other that is slightly looser with pleated flared skirts. Pleated flared skirts were expensive and were initially difficult to promote in famine-facing Europe, but they became popular in the affluent United States.

5. Jeans.

Cheap and durable denim, formerly worn by rough workers and denim, became popular in the 50s, worn by people of all ages and classes. Marlon Brando, James Jeans with leather jackets, and hooligan images were copied by tens of millions of rebellious young people at that time.

It feels similar to that of the 80s in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The popular clothing of the early 90s is the avant-garde style for the mainstream of design, it is a reverse trend of the conservative retro trend in the late 80s, its design reflects not only from the traditional clothing to find value consciousness, they think that the traditional design is rigid, numb, people can not get excited, often need to remove the mask of traditional culture and sanctimoniousness, with humorous and witty techniques, make light jokes.

The avant-garde style is characterized by deviance, variety, elusiveness and eclecticism. It goes beyond the usual aesthetic standards, is capricious, and produces a shocking effect in an absurd and grotesque form.

Since the 90s, the avant-garde style of popular clothing has been interpreted from the 50s, 60s to the 70s, and the avant-garde street culture, that is, the "Beat Generation" in the 50s, the "hippies" in the 60s, the "punk" in the 70s, the "yuppies" in the 80s, and the "X family" in the 90s. Instead, they had no choice but to look for the social reality of spiritual sustenance in the cultural circle of the avant-garde style.

In the early 90s, when people were looking forward to the new century, they used a forward-looking vision and modern high-tech means, such as transparent plastic and bright patent leather, to create an incredible future world on the popular stage, expressing their infinite imagination of the future. Futurism (originated in Italy in the 20th century, under the banner of iconoclastic and innovative art, shattered all established idols with a rebellious and fearless spirit, and celebrated movement, speed, strength and mechanical technology) is characterized by anti-tradition, but it lacks the heat and dryness of hippie clothing, and is called "a quiet dream" The colors are simple and unified, mostly silver and white, rich in a sense of purity, so that people can experience the designer's quiet and indifferent state of mind in addition to being amazed.

The '90s were particularly fond of shiny, slanted shoulders, florals, and ruffles. Particularly soft and hanging ruffles were almost everywhere and became the mainstream of every girl at that time. In the summer of 1993-1994, the babe skirt became the first choice for women's skirts in the summer of 1998, with no collar and no sleeves, a circle of fine pleats below the waist line, and a belt tied behind the back.

Flared pants are a trend of the era.
