Many amazing creations were born in the 80s. Think: the internet, Nintendo Gameboy and even mobile phones. But perhaps our favourite thing to come from this particular decade is the fashion, when shoulder pads, biker jackets and bold colours reigned supreme.
Which is why we’re lowkey having heart palpitations over Seafolly’s stunning new swimwear range that is all about celebrating the glorious 80s.
The swimwear legends have ventured into the archives and uncovered a gem from the past: original sketches and swatches from Head Designer Genelle Walkom in 1989. The result? A re-imagined Bodycheck collection that celebrates the past and future of swimwear. That’s right, they’re bringing the summer of 1989 into 2021.
Designed right here on home soil in Sydney, Bodycheck comes in two eye-catching palettes for those who dare to make a statement. The swimmers also feature jacquard textured fabric which flexes and moves to mould perfectly to the body’s contours. But don’t worry, it still offers superior support so feel free to bust a move in these babies.
Packing all of the 80’s nostalgia into five key silhouettes that make a sleek and sporty retro statement. These new era shapes feature something for everyone, from high cut leg lines and scoop tanks to bandeau bikini tops and high rise bikini pants, as well as an iconic tank one-piece which stands proud in all its retro glory. It’s so eighties it hurts.
