80's Fashion: A 21st Century Revival

In the 21st century, 80's fashion has been reborn. Nearly across the board, in countries the world over, there has been a movement towards incorporating 80's fashion into new century fashion creations to a very large degree.

One area in which 80's fashion has seen a revival has been in the arena of women�s fashion for the office. Women�s professional fashion in the 21st century has come to include longer, well made skirts and well as nicely tailored pantsuits. Indeed, a great deal of the fashion for the professional woman in the post-2000 era is drawing upon designs that were popularized twenty years earlier in the 1980s.

As far as men�s fashion is concerned, the 80's fashion revival has taken a different form. For the most part, semi-formal style for men, office wear, has not drawn on 1980s styling. (Indeed, men are wearing suits to the office less and less in the 21st century.)

When it comes to men�s fashion, it is casual wear that has seen a return to some of the 80's fashion styling. Casual wear in the 21st century includes khakis, deck-like shoes and other fashion pieces that were popularized in the 1980s. In point of fact, when it comes to contemporary styling for men�s casual wear, there is little or no different between 21st century designs and what was in place in the mid-1980s.

Some people have actually become interested in finding and buying -- and wearing -- vintage 80's fashion. There are a number of venues both in the brick and mortar world and online through which you can make the purchase of vintage 80's fashion. There are some websites that specialize specifically in buying and selling vintage 1980s clothing items -- everything from suits to shirts to skirts to shoes.
