Fuck Yeah '80s Mens' Fashions

To me, one of the odd things about 1980s mainstream fashion, that it kind of looks modern (would you look too much at people on the street if they dressed like this?), but if you really look at it, it’s off.  The high-waisted pants… the loose shirts… the feathered hair that could only be attained with special brushes.

Awwww, Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry… you’re so young! And Emma Thompson is barely recognizable, with her brown feathered hair. Huh.
