nobody asked for this but it’s happening anyway. after little to no research, i have determined where these kids would look for their 80s fashion inspiration.
adora’s 80s style is an unholy mess of marty mcfly/janet jackson/sporty tracksuit
catra is all about that punky “don’t fuck with me” joan jett aesthetic
glimmer is here for that cyndi lauper gritty pastel look
bow gets his style cues from ozone in breakin’ 2: electric boogaloo
scorpia likes that punky femme look madonna wore in who’s that girl. mermista serves some sridevi in mr. india looks. surprising no one, perfuma enjoys flowy boho stevie nicks style.
also sea hawk’s fashion icons are prince and workout cher
Hordak is definitely inspired by Depeche Mode and Siouxie Sioux
and shadow weaver with that smooth grace jones realness
as @tolstoyevskywrites pointed out, og huntara was inspired by grace jones, but modern beefcake huntara gives me some mad maxine vibes
okay, after much thought the only thing i can pin down about entrapta’s 80s style is that it’s part doc brown, part lady with a terrifyingly massive side ponytail
it’s 80s week in my head so i’m bringing this monstrosity back
