IT’S EASY to remember fashion in The Eighties as being over the top, prone to the excessiveness and decadence of the decade.
But let us remind you that there was certainly more to it than over-sized shoulder pads, sexy bodysuits and naughty fishnet gloves!
This month, Granny’s Day Out pays homage to the 1980s with dresses from the era that are decidedly softer and flirtier.
Pastel day party dresses, multi-tiered ruffled hems with peekaboo tulle and bustier necklines rule. It’s all very pretty, till the look gets transformed with denim separates and ankle boots, with unexpected pieces of bling upping the ante.
Showing it off on camera is a lovely Singaporean blogger, who goes by the moniker of Holly Jean. Fresh-faced and graceful, she makes the look all her own, adding a charming je ne sais quoi that makes it all look so easy.
Special thanks to photographer Ng K Hon, who shot everything right in his own home, as well as hairstylist Colin Yeo. Both are acclaimed artists in their own right and we are grateful for their invaluable skills and time!
