In the history of fashion, the eighties dress is a monument. Never in the eras before the 80s, we had seen dresses with such oversized volumes at the shoulders and sleeves. From the balloon-sleeved dress to the dress with shoulder pads , passing by the dress with rhinestones or the maxi bow on the bust, the 80s dress is a dress that is very easily recognized for its daring style. For our greatest happiness, the eighties have made their big comeback (leaving a few obsolete pieces in the closet) but revisiting most of the great standards that made the success of the decade . So if you are looking for a pretty trendy dress with a vintage touch, this is the eighties dress for you. Always very feminine and glamorous, it even appears like the glow up dress time to go to the evening. Depending on the model chosen, you can also wear it in a more casual version for a fussy daytime look.

What is an eighties dress?

Flashy colors or black!

If there is one thing that we remember from the 80s, it is the elegance of black, but not only! The key word for women's outfits was also power color . From neon green to flashy pink, through sequins assumed in the middle of the day, sequins and glitter, the 80's dress imposed itself as an evening dress that we wear on all occasions.

Unusual volumes

But the eighties dress is also characterized by an unusual volume in the cuts, like the sublime brand Bottega Veneta for women in particular. Whether on the sleeves, the collar, the neckline or the bottom of the dress, it always has a characteristic point specific to the divas of the 80s. Sometimes even the volume was combined with the flashy color or the shine, which made the dress even more amazing.

Glamorous and feminine cuts

Electric red, night blue with sequins, emerald green dress, golden dress, the eighties dress does not fit into a single box but in many models available to infinity. Also, it can be a neon yellow dress with an asymmetrical sleeve with large XXL ruffles or, conversely, a short plain black dress with large puff sleeves on the arms .
