1980s costumes

The 1980s was the decade when fashion went crazy. There were shell suits and punk gear, hip-hop and Prince, Madonna and Michael Jackson, Ghostbusters and Top Gun. Get ready for your 80s theme party or Halloween and find the perfect 1980s costume on eBay.

Women's 1980s costumes

The ultimate 80s diva to channel through your fancy dress costume is Madonna, with black lace, fishnet tights, fingerless gloves, and of course the trademark blonde wig. You could buy a whole costume or mix and match different items and accessories for the perfect Madonna look.

You could channel your inner Olivia Newton John and relive the decade's aerobics craze with pink lycra, leggings, and legwarmers, or don a pork pie hat for a Bananarama-inspired look.

Men's 1980s costumes

There are endless options for men's 1980s costumes. From neon shell suits to baggy pants and big jewellery, you're sure to find your perfect party look.

If you love Michael Jackson, pair a trilby with a black leather jacket for the classic "Billie Jean" look. Or you could choose some bold face paint and create an Adam Ant look. For fans of Top Gun opt for a leather aviator jacket and sunglasses, or a pilot's suit.

Girls' 1980s costumes

The 1980s were a fun and colourful decade when it came to fashion and there are plenty of looks on eBay that girls will love.

There are pint-sized punk rocker costumes, full Madonna fancy dress with pink lace skirts, and colourful Valley Girl costumes. It was a good decade for superheroes, too, so look out for Wonder Woman outfits.

Boys' 1980s costumes

Dress up as a mini Michael Jackson for Halloween, or get Ghostbusting with the full film costume. There are plenty of ready-made 1980s costumes for boys, as well as colourful accessories that they can pile on themselves for a costume that really stands out from the crowd.
