Well, I'm writing this one book that takes place in 1985. I want to know how certain people would dress. Girls, Guys. How would they do their hair? (Oh, and I have an American Indian as one of the characters, would he wear normal clothes, or traditional stuff)

Ooh, I find these research posts very fun Anyway, here ya go:
Chicks: Eighties fashion for women taught us terms like jelly bracelets, jelly shoes, neon clothing, leg warmers, and Guess jeans. They also brought back polka dots, Preppie clothes and wedgies – which used to be shoes and not an underwear malfunction. Oversized sweatshirts that could fit a truck inside over tight leggings were the norm. Not entirely helpful, but it shows what they DID wear during that time period. I'm sure of, duh you can trust me
Dudes: 1980s clothing styles for men included acid washed jeans, jean jackets, parachute pants, high top shoes and T-shirts. Unless, of course you were in the preppie crowd. Then you wore Izod shirts, probably with the collar up, dress pants and penny loafer shoes. And, let's not forget the baggy blazer with the sleeves rolled up.
Now that was helpful wasn't it? I'm sorry, but I can't find any Indian helpfuls Credit for chicks and dudes fashion came from http://www.liketotally80s.com
