Turning the glossy pages of magazines, you can catch yourself thinking "Somewhere I've already seen it ...". You in the house, for sure, remained clothes of parents of their youth. Look closely at her closely, and you will notice that she again comes into fashion. To date, we can see the echoes of Soviet 80's, and not only them, in the collections of many modern designers. This trend concerns absolutely all the previous decades. I would like to pay special attention to the fashion of the 80s of the last century.
Fashion 80's in the USSR and Russia
By economic standards, the need for clothing is among the most important human needs, but the desire to wear fashionable clothes is already a matter of aesthetic education. Unfortunately, according to the political and moral concepts of the middle of the last century in the USSR, women could not wear what they wanted, but content themselves with what was produced in domestic factories.
In the 80s, the fashion began to revive in bright colors and more intense shades. This period was a turning point not only for the light industry of the country, but also for music, and even for the media, because people came up with a fashion, but how could you find out if you are dressed fashionably? To help the Soviet man comes television.
Fashion and style of the 80's demanded idols! It was such people and became pop performers of the time, and our compatriots were equal to both our and foreign stars.
From the "native icons of the style " of that time, you should perhaps call Alla Pugacheva, Irina Ponarovskaya and Valery Leontiev. They before the other representatives of the Soviet stage began to show their individuality through the selection of clothes, which caused even greater respect for their fans, "raising the Soviet fashion from the knees in the 1980s".
The foreign fashion was represented by artists from several countries. For example, after the first broadcast on the TV of the concerts of the German groups "Modern Talking" and "Scorpions", their soloists instantly fell into the category of "fashionable idols". Idols of fashion 80-ies from America for the inhabitants of the USSR were, and remain to this day, Madonna and Michael Jackson.
It was Madonna who propagandized Soviet freedom in everything. The girls imitated her in the style of dress and manner of behavior. Fashion 80-ies in the USSR now consisted of girls in bright, lacy little puffy skirts, wide tops with print, preferably slipping from the shoulder. In general, this outfit looked fine with a denim or leather jacket to the waist, a wide belt on the hips and shoes with boats.
And where without hair and makeup? The most stylish styling at the time was a maximum size, and the most inveterate women of fashion managed to attach a huge bow to this strand. It looked to modern standards, at least, strange, but it was the fashion of the 80-ies of the twentieth century, and as you know, "from the song of words you can not throw out."
Do it yourself time
The history of fashion of the 80s fascinates. This is a period when no one had anything, and at the same time, everyone had everything ... Opportunities to buy fashionable things were not provided then, but almost every home had a sewing machine (maybe one for several apartments) , and it was a real miracle. Some people could not leave the house all weekend, changing old things into new ones. For example, my mother's cotton home gown could turn into a long fashionable skirt for the street. That's how the fashion was created in the territory of Russia.
No matter how strict the culture of the behavior of the USSR, it nevertheless allowed our fellow citizens to develop not only spiritually or morally, but also aesthetically. We can assume that the main fashion trends of the 80's originated in America and Europe, and then migrated to the Soviet Union.
