Women's Flashdance Plus Size Costume | 80s Movie Costumes
Imagine this: one moment, you’re an everyday eighteen-year-old steel worker living in a charmingly shabby chic warehouse, and the next, you find yourself auditioning for the local dance company. While most people might be content with a steady job that offers benefits, a cozy apartment, and a budding burlesque career at such a young age, our heroine Alex is ready to embrace a life full of exciting possibilities.
Now, let’s be real—even though we might envy her well-mannered dog and her handsome, well-connected boyfriend, Alex’s wardrobe could certainly use a refresh. Fortunately for her, she’s had the good fortune of steering clear of the shoulder pads and intense blush that defined fashion in the ‘80s, as her steel-working lifestyle did not require such flamboyant choices.
Instead, Alex effortlessly embodies chicness in scene after scene, showcasing her military surplus attire, cozy wide ribbed knit sweaters, and the iconic off-shoulder sweatshirt that has become a trendsetting staple. In today’s economy, finding a cute warehouse rental on a low-level welder’s salary isn’t exactly a walk in the park. In fact, securing a welding job at eighteen can be quite the challenge. But there’s a silver lining: you can easily achieve that sought-after off-the-shoulder look!
With our thoughtfully curated costume, you’ll be fully equipped to embody Alex’s fabulous style. The ensemble includes a long off-shoulder sweatshirt that nicely complements the daringly high-cut leotard that you may already own. Keeping those wild ‘80s locks in check is a breeze with the included headband, while the leg warmers serve as both style and comfort—perfect for showing off your breakdancing moves.
Who knew being an average eighteen-year-old steel worker could lead to such stylish opportunities? With this costume, you're not just stepping into character; you’re stepping into a vibrant chapter of life filled with creativity and dance!
