In the early 1980s, fashion had carried onward from the late 1970s. Athletic clothes were more popular than jeans during this period and was more subdued in color. Popular colors were black, white, indigo, forest green, burgundy, and different shades of browns, tans, and oranges. Velour, velvet, and polyester were popular fabrics used on clothes, especially tops, such as button-ups and v-neck shirts. Looser pants remained popular during this time, being fairly wide but straight, and tighter shirts were especially favored. The general public at this time had desired to wear low maintenance clothing with more basic colors, as the global recession going on at the time had kept extravagant clothes out of reach.
Popular clothing in the early 1980s worn by men include tracksuits v-neck sweaters, polyester and velour polo-neck shirts, sports jerseys, straight-leg jeans, polyester button-ups, cowboy boots, beanies, and hoodies. Around this time it became acceptable for men to wear sports coats and slacks to places that previously required a suit. In the UK, children's pants remained flared, but only slightly.
New wave influence
From the early to mid 1980s, post-punk and new wave music groups influenced mainstream male and female fashion. Commercially made slim fitting suits, thin neckties, striped T shirts, Members Only jackets, clubwear, metallic fabric shirts, cat eye glasses, horn rim glasses with brightly colored frames, androgynous neon colored makeup, and pristine leather jackets were widely worn. Common hairstyles included a short quiff for men, or teased big hair for women, and typical unisex colors for clothing included turquoise, teal, red, neon yellow and purple.
Preppy Look
In response to the punk fashion of the mid-late 1970s, there was a throwback to the late 1950s Ivy League style. This revival came to be definitively summarized in an enormously popular paperback released in 1980: The Official Preppy Handbook. Popular preppy clothing for men included Oxford shirts, turtlenecks, polo shirts with popped collars, khaki slacks, argyle socks, dress pants, suspenders (or alternatively, skinny ties in leather or bold patterns), pine-striped linen suits, corduroy, and plaid sweaters that were often worn tied around the shoulders.
Men's business attire saw a return of pinstripes for the first time since the 1970s. The new pinstripes were much wider than in 1930s and 1940s suits but were similar to the 1970s styles. Three-piece suits began their decline in the early 1980s and lapels on suits became very narrow, akin to that of the early 1960s. While vests (waistcoats) in the 1970s had commonly been worn high with six or five buttons, those made in the early 1980s often had only four buttons and were made to be worn low. The thin ties briefly popular in the early 80s were soon replaced by wider, striped neckties, generally in more conservative colors than the kipper ties of the 70s. Double breasted suits inspired by 1940s fashion were reintroduced in the 1980s by designers like Giorgio Armani, Ralph Lauren, and Anne Klein.They were known as 'power suits' and were typically made in navy blue, charcoal grey or air force blue.
