What is the weirdest fashion you ever followed?

---

Back in the 80's... Layered jackets... 'nuff said.

Hm. I never had the super big 80's hair...I did tight-roll my pants, wear layered socks, and I owned a pair of parachute pants. I loved all things Michael Jackson, and didnt have the glove or the jacket, but I had a necklace with a glove, and a "beat it" t-shirt. Oh, and feathered/layered hair - yikes!

:D

Cool!

Dreadlocks --- so popular among the girls in grade school.

I did NOT rock that look.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

You didn't? Awwwwww!

[heardthatnoise.livejournal.com]

I tight-rolled my plaid pants. K?

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

LOL! :D

New Wave c. '81-87. My temples were bleached, I wore polo shirts under Oxfords, and Sebago Docksides. I looked good back then. Now it's Hawaiian shirts and BDU pants with sandals and long hair.

Then again, there's my Renaissance garb, too.

Bleached temples? :D

early 80's - parachute pants

mid 80's - channeling my hair

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Channeling?

Well there was the whole Madonna phase. Netted shirts over white wife beater shirts, rosary beads, mini skirts with leggings.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Oooooo That I'd like to see!

[phigmentor.livejournal.com]

80's layered socks and Alf hair

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

I'd love to see that!

[chiropteraclan.livejournal.com]

Remember the band Flock of Seagulls and their hair? Yeah......

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Wow.... ;)

[donnickcottage.livejournal.com]

Side zip brushed leather Beatle boots with white cotton Neru shirts.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

So cool! :D

[innerly.livejournal.com]

80's.. neon.. *shudder*

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Oh wow... I want pics!

[ktsies2.livejournal.com]

The 80's were a crazy time...with big hair, bright colors and lots of socks. And I did it all. Haha.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

LMAO!

[kitykity.livejournal.com]

Yeap, I'd definitely say the MC Hammer pants. I hope all of those pictures have been thrown away.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

I hope not! ;)

I was a child of the 70s-80s. I went through my bright colours phase, then my Heavy Metal/Biker phase, my military/G.I. Joe BDU pants phase, my vampire/goth classical Victorian phase, etc.

And, of course, I still wear Renaissance/Medieval garb on nine weekends of the year.

But I think neon colours and an M.C. Hammer t-shirt that said "Can't Touch This" were my personal weirdest - I was still in high school at the time. And even then, I would rather have worn Faire garb 24-7.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

I just can't picture you in neon...

[dishapeaches.livejournal.com]

Shoulder pads! Lots of them too - shirts and jackets both had them, so you were always doubled-up.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Woo Hoo! :D

[brenda-in-sepia.livejournal.com]

side ponytail?

Oooh, and there was a period when my bangs could have been used as a badminton net.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Cute!

[hippie-geisha.livejournal.com]

Hair that defied gravity. I would roll a piece of hair around the curling iron, and spray it with Aqua Net hairspray. When it was done sizzling, I would take it off the curling iron, and tease. It's a wonder I still have hair.

Ripped jeans. I would take a new pair of jeans, bleach them, hang them up on a clothesline and slash them with a razorblade. Then wash them again a few times to get them to fray. I would wear lacy or patterned tights underneath them, and top the outfit with a T-shirt of whatever heavy metal band.....

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

I'd love to see pictures!

[sm00bs.livejournal.com]

Hah, I was a child of the '80s. Pick one.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

LMAO!

[babystar620.livejournal.com]

I was a kid in the 80's, so neon colors, spandex, LA Gears hahahaha!
And I'm sure I still commit some now!

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Pictures!

:D

[shamrocks-13.livejournal.com]

I used to roll my pants up at the ankles the way Bobby Brown did. Real Tight. LMAO.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

LMAO!

[smwright.livejournal.com]

I think it would have to be the baby doll socks with the spiked heels. *points above and agrees* *big shudder*

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

I'm hoping there are pictures... ;)

[venusflesh.livejournal.com]

Haha, I used to wear spandex/lycra all the time when I was a kid... FUG! lol

[eternalxwhisper.livejournal.com]

Dying my hair blonde with the rest of them and having like 4 strands of hair for a fringe!

[castlelady.livejournal.com]

When Michael Jackson came out with Thriller, I saved my allowance like a maniac and then bought a red and black leather jacket that looked exactly like the one he wore in the video :P

[donor4him.livejournal.com]

stirrup pants...and shirts with shoulder pads...and leg warmers...

lol, yeah, i'm a kid of the 80's alright

[photodiva02.livejournal.com]

Not weird, but I bought parachute pants, the fad that was hot by spring and you couldn't sell them for $2 come December.
