Revisit the heyday of supermodels, fluorescents, and Billy Idol with designer-of-the-moment Alice & Olivia. What began as a line of pants in 2002 has quickly become one of the fastest growing must-have labels, coveted by the likes of Eva Longoria, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Gwyneth Paltrow.

Alice & Olivia’s most recent collection explores the impact of perhaps the most glamorously wrong fashion era to date; a time when Linda Evangelista and Claudia Schiffer ruled the runways, and wearing something sparkly was considered conservative—a.k.a. The 80s. The Elizabeth Skirt is a flirty alternative to a skin-tight mini, all the while showing those gorgeous gams. Silk gives the piece a modern twist, but tonal stitching and smocked banding at the waist keeps it true to the decade in high-fashion form.

While some trends can be recalled and welcomed back with open arms, there are those that should simply be banned for life. Take, for instance, the bodysuit. Gone for good, right? Wrong! Never would anyone have predicted the homecoming of such a seemingly heinous piece, too often associated with jazzercise and, ahem, dare I say…camel toe. However, Alice & Olivia has resurrected the relic in a most unexpectedly fresh way. The Scoop Neck Tank Bodysuit boasts wide black and white stripes, and the material is utterly irresistible. Modern updates include a thong back (no panty lines, so don’t worry), and nylon-spandex combo that makes for a thick, sustainable tank that looks effortless and chic. So there.

Sequins were never meant to be doled out in moderation, and the Sequin Short Sleeve Mini Dress is no exception. This little number proudly features two-tone, on-the-bias stripes, and the glam-rock factor is Boy George-high. For a softer take on the mini-dress trend, the Bugle Bead Dress is the same sexy shift style with a more refined elegance, thanks, in part, to the neutral color. It’ll spotlight your legs, and if you’ve been a regular in spin class, they can shine on their own anyway, without the assistance of sequins.

For those of you who are not ready to get bare-naked leggy just yet, the Wide Waistband Pant is simply the perfect pair of white pants. Front slant pockets and welt pockets on the back make this simple style a wardrobe staple, and white pants are always a throw-back to the 80s. Since a body-conscious dress in bright blue would have surely gotten you to the front of the line at the Paula Abdul concert, you can see why it’s so easy to fall in love with Alice and Olivia’s Knit Tube Dress. It will have you looking so fierce that you’ll have to immediately Shut Up and Dance. Just make sure you ditch the big hair and enormous plastic jewelry, Straight Up.
