Introduction
Taste in fashion has changed drastically over hundreds of years. In the 60's, ponchos, peace signs and bubble puff sleeves were the big trends. Then in the 70's, it was tie-die, frayed jeans and maxi dresses. But then, the 80's became the new line of denim, trousers and fancy dresses.

Evaluation
The 1960s fashion was bi-polar in just about every way. Bright, swirling colors. Psychedelic, tie-dye shirts and long hair and beards. Woman wore unbelievably short skirts and men wore tunics and capes. The 1960’s was a decade where desings were both sophisticated and rather bold and revolting designs of generation were equally famous. This makes the 1960’s one of the most decade for fashion.
Seventies fashion began with a continuation of the late 1960s hippie style. In the early 1970s, this meant an emphasis on handmade materials and decorations.Women’s fashion looked back to the 1940s by day and pumped up the glamour by night. Men had an array of suit types to choose from and favored colorful plaids.
Bright, bold, and loud come to our minds. It was an era of dramatic earrings, shoulder pads, big hair, and glittery fabric colors. To sum it up, the 1980s fashion trends were more about flaunting wealth and materialistic values.Severely tailored military -style suits and jackets with padded shoulders were worn side-by-side with printed t-shirts, velvet tracksuits , and baggy harem pants or leggings.
Conclusion
The fashion trends of the 80's has changed drastically from styles before. The colors, and the fashion, and the entire vibe was positive and fun in the 80's. Everything was fluffy and puffy and bright and calm. It was quite a clash of colors that settled out very well. Would you have enjoyed dressing in 80's clothes? We hope you enjoyed our WebQuest and the videos and activities! Thank youuu :)
