I Love The 80s portrays the era of excess and glamour through the lens of legendary British photographer David Bailey.

Having shaped the style of the Swinging Sixties, Bailey takes on the challenge of capturing the extravagance and energy of 1980s fashion: bright colours, statuesque models, extreme make-up, Lycra, jumpsuits, power dressing, impossible bouffant hairstyles and a defiant attitude that marked an era.

The book brings together a carefully curated selection of photographs taken for iconic publications such as Vogue Italia, Vogue Paris and Tatler, showcasing haute couture and ready-to-wear collections by key designers such as Azzedine Alaïa, Comme des Garçons, Guy Laroche, Missoni, Stephen Jones, Valentino and Yves Saint Laurent.

In its pages, jewels sparkle, silks shimmer and suits relax, while the models and icons of the decade — Catherine Bailey, Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Catherine Deneuve, Princess Diana, Jerry Hall, Grace Jones, Christy Turlington, Tina Turner and many more — appear at their most powerful, provocative and playful.

Eighties is a visual testament to a decade that broke with the hierarchies of taste and brought fun and sensuality back to fashion. With an introduction by Grace Coddington and Bailey herself as a guide, the book invites readers to rediscover the magic of the eighties, a time that continues to inspire and shape contemporary culture.
