The shoulder pads worn on Dynasty could have overshadowed any plot. It's for this extravagance that we remember Dynasty. Glamorizing power dressing with sequins, metallic fabrics and endless jewels, it marked the opulence of '80s fashion that influences runways today.

The current costume jewelry craze, return of lace hosiery and oversized blazers and clutches all scream 1980s soap opera. Intense gems tones in poly and silk blouses are also characteristic of this era. Keep your look fresh with modern hair and makeup.
