Neon shirts, baggy shirts, shirts that proclaimed a personal statement, parachute pants, boofy hair with so much hairspray it could blow a hole in the ozone!!! Ahhh, those were the 1980's!!

Got it. I don't know about the clothes, but the sultry poses work for me.

I love the way Lucille Ball dressed in "I Love Lucy". I especially like the fact that women wore gloves at that time. I'd dress that way now, but I'm afraid that my daughter would disown me.

I didn't see much of I Dream of Genie til much later. Though Babs Eden is still an attractive woman. Also, I almost forgot Barbara Feldon, the lovely agent 99...

It would be a hoot to have a 1950s freeper party, where all dressed for the period. Lotsa martinis too!
