80's party attire

If you were invited to an 80's New Year Eve's party, what would you wear?

Side ponytail or high pony with that cone thing (think I dream of genie/madonna). Or defuse hair to be really big and curly, use a banana clip and blow dry the front of hair hreally high using stiff stuff or rave.

Long off the shoulder top with bright colored tank underneath and a side knot. Leggings with either leg warmers or slouch socks and a pair of keds/white skippies

Honestly, any long shirt will due. If you get it cheap (like from sale rack at kohls) you can just cut the collar our yourself so that it shows shoulder.

I think I saw leg warmers kind of everywhere this year lol I'm pretty sure they were at 5 and below. If not, if you have amazon prime, just go that route. Also pay less had plain white skippies no too long ago-also walmart has them. You can also wear converse or even black heels. There is no wrong way to do the 80s
One thing about 80's dressing... Its cheap to do!

Holy cap - is it bad that I can remember actually wearing that stuff in the 80's.

Go the Madonna route. That's the most iconic.
Jane Fonda exercise video / Olivia Newton John " Let''s Get Physical" is another 80''s outfit.
