Boys Clothes during the 1980s



ITrends in the 1980s continued and intensified those begun in the 1970s. No longer was there a monolithic style line for women. Instead, fashion was more segmented and women selected from among a wide variety of alternatives in silhouette, skirt length, and fabrics. Men and boys' fashions were less diverse. The major fashion was the ubiquitous blue jeans now stone-washed or with artfully placed and frayed tears.

There is of course a great deal of information available on 1980s fashions. Unfortunately space limitations do not permit me to provide more information on the 1980s here. There is, however, additional information and many historical photographs on the expanded Boys Historical Clothing web site. For details click here >>>>>> Expanded Site.
