Dodgy Haircuts galore.....

Is this a thread for ANYTHING that was acceptable in the eighties?

In which case I'll see your dodgy haircuts and raise you a pair of luminous socks, a packet of Garbage Pail stickers and a David Hasselhoff singing to packed crowds in West Germany.

PS WW- that link doesn't work, what was it supposed to be?

If you're talking big 80s hair and extremely high waisted trousers, I'd venture Kim Wilde could give most people a run for their money...

Have edited the original link.

But yes, i was kind of hoping this thread would go down this route...

Obviously not being born until 1988, i don't think i had any shockers in the clothes department back then...well i hope not anyway!

Anyway, this 80's move is making a comeback...
