Dusky Pink Jersey Blazer from Miss Selfridge

Selfridge dusky pink

When we think 80s, there's some style points of the era's fashion that crop up in everyone's memory. The use of androgyny was a staple for some years, and this Dusky Pink Jersey Blazer from Miss Selfridge does that perfectly.

The oversized cut of the blazer gives an instant air of the 'menswear-on-ladies' look that was so popular, while the pink shade couldn't be from any other era. Short ruched sleeves and a deep, low neckline combine to give this the perfect cut for eighties style.

Silence + Noise Ponte Faux Leather Dress

Black leather

The eighties had many fashion trends that are unmistakeable, but the more mainstream of the decade's styles was most famous for its use of sex appeal. The body-conscious looks are having a revival, and they're not for the faint of heart.

This Silence + Noise dress combines the raunch factor of eighties fashion with another classic element – leather. With an update thanks to fabric side panels for improved fit, the addition of details like spaghetti straps and a sweetheart neckline finish it off with flair.

Get it from Urban Outfitters UK for £48.
