CLASSY LOOK WOODEN KEY HOLDER WITH MAIL MOVIE

As for her favorite '80s fashion pop culture moments, she says, 'Anything Grace Jones ever wore,' like, 'the looks that Azzedine Alaïa created for her character May Day in the 1985 Bond movie A View to Kill.'įor those interested in expanding their '80s fashion history knowledge into less mainstream territory, Jones suggests looking into Claude Montana's work. She was pregnant for that show and coincidentally was supposed to be representing the Virgin Mary.' She also loves the Issey Miyake fall 1981 collection, particularly the famous blue plastic bodice (which she actually has in her personal collection). Pat Cleveland descended from the ceiling in a glistening gown looking like an ethereal angel. His fall 1984 show is what fashion fantasy dreams are made of. When it comes to her favorite collections, Jones says Thierry Mugler instantly comes to mind.

Also, sunglasses by Alain Mikli, Issey Miyake, and Kenzo.' 'Some of my favorite accessories from that era were made by Christian Lacroix, Yves Saint Laurent, and Karl Lagerfeld. 'The hats! The earrings! The brooches! The belts! The gloves!' she says. In an interview, she tells us how she particularly loves, 'the structured silhouettes, abstract and playful shapes,' and, 'the unapologetic glamour and all of the statement pieces made to command the room.' Like many of us who are enamored with the time period, Jones can't help but gush over the accessories. In a post-Phoebe Philo era where neutral palettes and minimal silhouettes were king, the '80s influences in the early 2010s gave the market a renewed sense of bold color stories and playful dressing many would argue was missing from the industry for decades.īrynn Jones, owner of Aralda Vintage in Los Angeles, where actresses like Alexa Demie and Taylor Russell shop for archival designer finds, has always been inspired by the boldness of the era. And today, plenty of the signature staples of the 1980s, like biker shorts, bold-shoulder blazers, and taffeta eveningwear, are everywhere. The 1980s, in particular, had a major impact on modern fashion, with enduring muses like Grace Jones, Madonna, and Bianca Jagger.

From the stark resurgence of the early aughts to the ever-present influence of decades like the '70s, designers are clearly taking notes from the past. If we've learned anything from the life cycle of trends over the years, it's that everything always comes back into style eventually.
