80’s Fashion on Gossip Girl Flashback

80’s Fashion on Gossip Girl Flashback. Like many I was quite excited to see the 80’s flashback episode Especially since many of the 80’s fashion trends are coming back now anyway. The fashion part was pretty much spot on, lots of leather, bold colors, and big style. Here’s the fashion break down of her exact outfit and we can thank fabsugar for the info.

“The bad girl paired her tiered polka-dot dress with pink Givenchy cut-out heels, lace leggings from Urban Outfitters, and a cropped asymmetrical jacket. Rad. Her sister Carol, aka Krysten Ritter, opted for a more vintage look wearing a nautical dress by Ya-Ya, Jordache jean jacket, white boots, yellow drawstring bag, and loads of accessories. I can only imagine the trouble these two caused. Oh, did I mention ’80s heartthrob Andrew McCarthy will make an appearance as Lily’s music-executive father? If you like what you witness in tonight’s episode, keep your eyes peeled for producers Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage’s untitled Gossip Girl spinoff, which follows the crazy life of 17-year-old Lily in Los Angeles, circa 1983.”

Although the fashion was spot on I was disappointed with the makeup, It just didn’t feel very 80’s where was the crazy blue eyeshadow and flushed bright red cheeks? Maybe they will fix that for the Spin Off series. A girl can only hope. You can see pics of the 80’s fashion from the episode below.
