Flipping your polo collar up, sometimes on two shirts at once, was a whole statement.A thin chain worn around the waist was the finishing touch on a crop top.The hair went straight up and over the top of the visor, and that was the point.Headbands and wristbands came out of the gym and onto the street.Proudly wearing a zippered pouch around your waist was peak style.Even T-shirts came with built-in shoulder pads at one point.Pop stars made them famous, and everyone else wobbled around in them.A single scarf tied around the body counted as a whole shirt.Those stretchy black chokers were in every kid’s jewelry box.They were colorful and cute, and they gave everyone blisters.Pants that turned into shorts felt like the most practical invention ever.Wearing a dress over a pair of jeans was somehow a red-carpet-worthy look.A jean jacket with matching jeans was considered a complete, coordinated outfit.Leaving one strap hanging was the effortlessly cool look of the decade.Some pant legs were so wide they could have doubled as tents.
