The year in fashion. 1986

Description

"Challenger exploded with seven astronauts on board. The New York Mets won the World Series, and it was "people power" in the Philippines. Power dressing ruled: aggressive suits & bulky shoulder pads reflected women's success in the workplace. TV shows like Dynasty and Dallas had everyone dressing the part. Nostalgia for the 60s ran rampant. Notable runways of 1986: Karl Lagerfeld, Christian Dior, Chanel, Gianfranco Ferre, Laura Biagiotti, Gianni Versace, Moschino, Betty Jackson, John Galliano, Katharine Hamnett, Betsey Johnson, Marc Jacobs, and Donna Karan."--Publisher website.
