The 1980's is home to a wide variety of fashion trends that are eye-catching and stand out amongst any crowd.
The crazier the outfit, hairstyle, make-up, and accessories, the better. Annie Lennox is seen as a more sexually ambiguous character that people cannot usually place their finger on when it comes to identifying a label in terms of gender and sexuality. It is known that she is a woman and that she straight, however her dress and appearance proclaim that she is not trying to immerse herself into any culture that restricts her expression as a human. Items that represent this era: converse sneakers, leg warmers, teased hair, blue eyeshadow, crushed velvet, tulle skirts, side-ponytails, white-washed jeans, and track jackets.
