Subject: What did Teahcers wear in the 1980's for clothing, such as shoes and such?

I am doing the play FAME and was wondering if anybody knew what the teachers would wear. Boys and Girls. Like for pants and shoes and shirts and such. If anybody could ehelp that would be great!

The teachers usually wore shirts wi th big collars, kinda like silk with either lace or a big bow at the neckline, I'm sorry i cant describe it better. The skirts were knee length and most wore them, pants usually were not worn. If they had a jacket on they had shoulder pads Sorry I cant help you better I went to Catholic school and had Nuns, so I asked my friend :)

^Yeah I don't remember teachers wearing pants very often either, unless they were men. But the female teachers nearly always wore skirts and showed off their legs...which I would ogle back in my elementary and middle school days. Sometimes I would get really mad at those teachers for what to me seemed like blatant teasing of us boys...always crossing and uncrossing their legs, dangling their shoes, etc, etc. I've talked to a few guys about this when we remince about our growing up years, and they confirm that it was a thrill but also anguishing.
(sorry to off into my perverted tangent)
But yeah, go watch the movie FAME. Granted that movie will only show early 80s fashions, but at least that is something for you to use. Watch the movie Donnie Darko too. Drew Barrymore plays a teacher in 1988 in that film, and she wears an outfit that I remember many young teachers in their 20s and 30s wore back in the late 80s.
