Those were the heavy hitters for the decade. Samsara came out in 89, but it was really an afterthought. Giorgio. That was probably the first of the Killer 80s Florientals.

I reread Erica Jong’s Parachutes and Kisses a while back, and oh, wow, it is so terribly 80s. The character wears suede boots, and fuschia, and off-the-shoulder sweaters, and every time she has a sexual encounter, which, being as it’s Erica Jong, is often, she spritzes herself with Obsession.

I am so glad I was too young to really get the full brunt of 80s fashion.

CALVIN KLEIN JEANS!
