Whoever said “less is more” didn’t come of age in the 1980s. Girl, you know it’s true! ’80s fashion was all about color, size, and experimentation. We wore blue mascara and yellow eye shadow, we had hair to the skies and shoulder pads not far behind it, and the lines between men’s and women’s fashion blurred.
These amazing photographs below were taken by Grady McAllister at some Texas beaches during the 1980s.
“During that period, I was there nearly every weekend to practice my photography. I took the photos at East Beach, Stewart Beach, and The Hut Club, and the dates run from 1980 to 1988.”
