New Wave Dress?

Postby VegetaMIR » Wed Jan 26, 2005 3:51 pm

Im wondering what New Wave is considered for dress? I know back in the 80s it was bright colors and other things, but what is it these days?

Im not down with wearing bright colors. Only bright colors I wear is my work shirts and the jerseys I have.

I mostly wear band shirts, and tight jeans.

I guess my point was three-fold;

2. Kim still has my heart.
3. NW for today = black.

Well I have my british flag sleeveless t-shirt(imagine 2 flags sewn together, a la Def Leppard). Only took me 8 years to find it, and another year to find one that fit me.
