Do you see any 1980s fashions coming back this decade? Whether clothes or hairstyles?

Last year, when shopping for school clothes, I saw a checked button up shirt just like the ones I wore in high school.

There was some kind of "activator" you had to spray onto a Jerry Curl in order for it to keep looking good.
When you see an '80's Rick James video, and he's turning his head quickly and you see a mist of droplets flying out of his head... that's Jerry Curl activator.

Yup. I sometimes wear high waist shorts, skirts, and pants with crop tops that look like 80s fashion. :)

The Jheri Curl always makes me think of Eriq La Salle in 'Coming to America'

The other day I walked past a shoe shop and in the window was a pair of sandals identical to a pair I wore in the mid-eighties. thin leather straps in a sort of 'ancient greek' style with two buckle fasteners up past the ankle.
Last year, when shopping for school clothes, I saw a checked button up shirt just like the ones I wore in high school.
Elizabeth had a checked shirt for Christmas, and one style she looked at was a black and white check in a short sleeve style. I had one very similar.
I also saw several blue and white stripe tops similar to one I had (that was originally my mums from the 50s!)

I think you're talking about gladiator sandals. I didn't know those were popular in the '80s, though.

I've been seeing more of the "Flashdance Top" lately on women. You know, the one shoulder hanging out.
However, every time I see that the first thing that comes to mind is 'Flashdance' and I am not sure if that is what the wearers are really looking for. ;D

Neon yellow and neon purple are becoming popular clothing colors, I'd say thats definitely some 80s influence. Also the large-sweater-and-leggings look.

I kinda hope the New Wave look comes back.
I also like the 80s Prep look for guys. Polo shirt, slacks or jeans.
And I want the 80s Punk/Post Punk to come back for chicks--Love chicks wearing leather and leather jackets.
Also, the whole "plaid shirt/leather jacket" combo for guys like in the early-mid 80s is/was cool.

Mother was a bit too old and focused for 80s fashion trends. Turned 30 in 1984 with two kids, a working single mother. Not exactly the club hopping, trendy type.
Now my dad on the other hand....

I think that jelly shoes are coming back. I could be wrong, I don't know.
