New Romantics
Eighties fashion movement
New Romantics refers to a British pop music and fashion movement of the early 1980s characterized by flamboyant, androgynous style and synthesizer-driven sound.
Bands like Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet, and Culture Club defined the genre.
The look featured elaborate makeup, frilly shirts, and gender-bending aesthetics: The New Romantics brought eyeliner back to men's fashion.
