This exciting book explores one of the most diverse and innovative periods in British fashion and showcases the work of some of the decade’s leading designers – including Betty Jackson, Leigh Bowery, John Galliano, BodyMap, Vivienne Westwood and many others.
Highlighting the decade’s extraordinarily creative interaction between fashion and popular music, the book shows how both catwalk and club fashions were interpreted for a wider audience through the striking photography and innovative graphic designs of key magazines. 80s Fashion includes interviews and original archive material from practitioners such as Wendy Dagworthy and Paul Smith that casts new light on the designs of the decade.
