About MeScooped off-the-shoulder neckline and gored calf length skirt. This dress was worn to an 18th birthday party in the 1980s. This was a decade of strange fashions as shoulders became wider and more extreme and padded. Hemlines also moved up and down, and black started its supremacy in the colour stakes.
