I need to study clothes and accessories that teenagers were wearing in the 80s. Do you know of any good films I could watch that would illustrate this? THANKS!

FAME
St Elmos Fire
Pretty In Pink
16 candles
Ferris Buellers Day Off
Footloose
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
Desperately Seeking Susan
Dream Machine
the list is endless....
The Breakfast Club
How could I forget that one?
lol, and how good are the above films???? I'd love an entire weekend with that stack of DVD's to watch :-)
see how I am giving my age away though?

I have all of those films... wanna film weekend BOO?
Don't forget those listed are American , to see how trendy we were over here you need to look up "Gregory's Girl "and similar.
dont tell mum the babysitter's dead, shes a teenage fashion designer or something and gets all her friends to take part in a fashion show
lol, would love to Brier:-)

Also a good film to watch for Brit styles of the 80's (ok, the 80's equivalent of a Chav) is Rita Sue and Bob Too. Don't recommend watching it with any kids around though.
Ooops, Briar, sorry. I really should check name spellings 1st!
Its fine, I was so familiar with Shakespeare earlier I knocked his e off!!
Back to the Future (beginning) ;)
Breakdance (aka Breakin')
Secret of my Success

yes Rita Sue and Bob too what a classic!!
Clockwise (starring John Cleese) - this is set in a school and always reminds me of the way in which we used to very loosely interpret the school uniform, with a flat shoes (loafers), mini skirts, flicked back hair and jumpers hung round our shoulders.
Adventures in babysitting, pretty in pink, breakfast club, st elmos's fire, 16 candles, footloose and dirty dancing
Mannequin is a great 80's film with kim cattrell from sex in the city
