Subject: how to be in with the 80s new wave scene


Here's How:

Hairstyle is critical. Hair must either be short in back and long in front or very short all around. Side parts will always help these styles.

"Wings" cut in over one or both sides are considered 'de rigeur'. Bangs should "swoop" over one eye.

"Tails", (tiny ponytails about 1/2 inch thick usually found at the back or side backs of the head) are always a right choice.

Remember, achieving a "loft" to your hair is essential, be sure to slather your hair with plenty of Aqua-Net (white can with pink label), metallic and glitter hair gels and mouses and be sure to use a pick and hair dryer to retain that "crunch".

Hair color is equally as important as style. Think extremes. Bleached white, dyed a magenta, blue, yellow, any day-glo or unnatural color or jet black.

Old man suits with skinny lapels in shimmering "sharkskin" fabrics for men. May also be substituted by very expensive pastel Armani suits with big shoulders.

Tight cocktail dresses from the 50s are acceptable forms of dress for women. Also included are crinolines, 50s prom dresses, gloves, and "cat-eye" glasses.

Skinny ties should be worn with suits. Bolo ties may be substitued.

Stiletto heels with pointy toes are acceptable shoes for the gals. Heck, any kind of pointy toed shoe is preffered for both men and women.

Red lipstick and heavy black eyeliner for both men and women, eyeshadow choices should be in combinations no less than three colors.

Wearing a Sony Walkman everywhere you go certainly will help your "look".

Ambiguous sexuality is fundamental. Boys might be boys or girls and vice versa.

When bustin' a move on the dancefloor be sure to use plenty of jerky, electric, machine-like motions. Robot dancing is acceptable.

Affect a British accent...even if you are from Nebraska.
Rubber bracelets! Rubber bracelets! Rubber bracelets!

Tips:

Image is everything.

Haircut is essential.

Poor shoe choices will aways give you away as the poseur you really are.
