Ah...memories...

Maybe you could also make an "Empire Strikes Back" themed T-shirt? That was the movie that got me interested in the entertainment business to begin with back when I was about 4. (That and "An American Tail.")

Thank you so, so much! I have been looking everywhere for '80s style items and clothing for a story I am writing. This will fit perfectly. Thank you again!

Sweet! Any chance of getting some of those Day-Glo skirts with the stretchy lycra pants attached, and maybe some hair meshes for the hairsprayed bangs look? :D

Lady, I have a few of those and yes I'll put them up. Tricia, like a sort of Don Johnson sort of thing? (for guys and girls?) I would love it!!

Ah! The '80s - the decade of fashion disasters. -LOL- But thankfully you've only recolored the clothes from the '80s that don't blind you with their hideousness and bright colors. Have you been to Parsimonious? They re-did the whole site and now they have a whole section of '80s clothes (the not-so-subtle '80s clothes). You might want to take a look there if you're making an '80s neighborhood. Thanks!

Wow! Does this bring back memories, especially the bit about the leg warmers (*cringes inside*)! Am downloading everything and hope you share more; this is a really underrepresented fashion era, as far as downloads go, and you did a great job with these creations.

Stirrup pants, hot pink fake velvet, the "Baroque" accessories, I still have all my Seventeen magazines from the mid '80s. I'll have to dig them up. Though, I just watched "The Running Man" yesterday and now that I look at the downloads, I'm thinking of throwing in "Sixteen Candles." Gotta download these first.

They look great! Keep up the good work!
