Today, the 6th in our series of public service announcements about how not to dress. I bring you
Awful 80s Fashion!
Do I really need to say anything?
Do my ankles look fat? Hell, yes!
Why do designers think we want to look like little kids? I don't know if you can tell in the insert picture, but the back of the sweater has the backs of the bunnies with real pom-pom tails. And Saks had the audacity to charge $180 for this sweater in 1985!
Take one sweater, add another sweater to each sleeve and you've got three sweaters in one!
Honey, I lost my underarms.
Add 10 pounds to your hips instantly with this amazing dress!
Even better, add 20 pounds!
I'm big, I'm bad, I'm plaid.
I actually like this cape-coat. But the photo cracks me up. Did someone call Zorro?

oh man I remember when every working girl in Manhattan wore white hose, black patent shoes and pink coat dresses. Good n' Plenty, anyone?
I'm a sucker for those Spanish riding hats. I like the cape too. Too bad it could fit an entire cub scout campout inside.
Hope you have lots more, this all makes me laugh . . .
That bunny pullover is pretty much the most awful thing I've ever seen! The rest... well, it was totally cool back then, right? I wasn't born then but when I look at what I wore during the 90s, it scares me alot.
I love how the bunny sweater woman is still doing the Sexy Model Pout. And the woman in the first photo looks like a one-woman incarnation of Sesame Street!
Those are just awful. Awful! Great post!
Ha! Even better, I have a knitting magazine from the 80s with a pattern for the bunny sweater on the cover! I always thought it was insane, but now I know... it's a fabulous designer knock off!
