Once Michael Jackson died, the 80's look has seem to come back. If you were to walk around east harlem you would see people wear something Micheal Jackson has worn during the 80's, and that has a lot of influence into why people are wearing things like from the 80's now. So I guess that answers the question, What is making Fashion from the 80's come back into what people are wearing now? But the 3 reasons why I think it has come back which is, celebrities have a lot of influence on fashion, Little Kids are also starting to wear clothes from the 80's which makes the 80's look spread through out the world, and also Fashion has always been about looking good, even if you dont feel good about yourself.

One of the biggest reasons why people are starting to wear the 80's look is because of celebrities. I read an article that was saying [|Rhianna is wearing alot of 80's like clothing.]So if people see that they would wear the same thing also. [|Another celebrity that influced fashion is Madonna,] in the 80's she was really big and she was someone who people looked up to. From the hairstyles or shoes and many other things. But like I said before Micheal Jackson was someone people really looked up to so much that someone[| bought a pair of shoes he wore that cost $20,000.]

A second thing is little kids. When Little Kids are watching T.V or just playing outside they see the fashion changing over time and little kids want to follow and wear it to. [|In a article I read a 7 year old was wearing an 80's look]. She was wearing cheetah print leggings and a glittery shirt. Young kids are being influenced and wanting to wear expensive brand clothing and starting to act like teenagers because they dressing like them and feel the need to have a attitude.

Finally the last reason is fashion has always been about looking good no matter what decade it is. [|Fashion has always been the most important thing of looks.] Evan if your not feeling good about yourself you have to look good and be up to date with clothing. Most people has a image wear they want to look but looks nothing like it. For an example if your fat and your really insecure about your body what would make you feel better would be looking good with clothing. Covering how you really feel with how you want to feel.

So as you see fashion is not just about what your wear. It's a lot more to it, How you feel about it, its always a secret to it. The 80's is the most exciting point of time where people expressed there feelings through clothing. So to my opinion is that why 80's clothing is coming back.
