There is one requirement needed to meet this costume: Lots of shine. Being glamorous is being hip, glossy, and sexy. Obviously, when you are shining brightly as a star, you will instantly shine out in the crowd. This costume is easy to create, for one thing, you might even find the clothes you need in your closet.

Find a dazzling top. Find a blouse with shoulder pads or ones that are printed with polka-dots, stripes, or lined with sequins. Pick a color that is bright with catchy designs. Or you may choose one that fuses three or more colors. If you want something plain, pick a blouse that is silky and bright, so you will still glow.

The glam look will not be complete without the leggings. Choose leggings that are as brightly colored as your top. The best colors to pick are gold, silver, pink, and green. Don’t worry about mismatching the colors of your top; it doesn’t matter as long as you’re all bright and glowing.

Since the top and the leggings are brightly colored, the shoes must be as well. Contrasting the color of your shoes to your clothing will be great, as it easily grabs attention. For example, wear a yellow-green tank top, gold leggings, and red pumps. Get the picture? The 80’s fashion is very loud worn with a variety of colors.

For the hair, you can use a curling iron, perm it to make it big and then ponytail it atop your head or at the side, so that the curls are flowing down. This adds more glamor.

Wear a lot of accessories; several plastic bangles on each wrist, several necklaces, and dangling or hoop plastic earrings that matches the bangles.

For the make-up, make sure that it is glossy, just like your outfit. Wear the popular 80’s electric blue eye-shadow, make your cheekbones visible by dusting a fair amount of blush, and wear an ultra red lipstick.

And now you’re all glamorous and ready. With this outfit you are going to shine all night long, so be extra energetic.
