Flashdance flashback 1983



In the same week I happened by chance to start a new dance class and see Flashdance on TV. Perfect timing. As well as admiring the 80s leotards and leggings, which are always fun, I noticed Jennifer Beal's wardrobe was quite current in many ways, (excluding the massive perm). I like the boyish clothes she wears in the film when she's not dancing.


She just looks cool and wears it all so well, especially when riding her fixed gear bike!



But of course the dance gear is great too! Even though at this point I'm probably the worst in the class, I think I need to bite the bullet and buy the XXL legwarmers from bloch....in black!

That's not a fixie bike, it's got drop bar shifters and two derailleurs, like my vintage Lotus and Bianci. :)
