Shoulder Pads Back Again
Shoulder pads were a huge fad back in the 80's that went out of style. Now they have creeped up back into high fashions style, such as the Marc Jacobs look above.
Some of the most famous stars have been wearing the style, but is it a look that should be coming back? Frankly, I find it unattractive, and that it should stay in the past. So I wonder how do others feel about it?

Sorry, but no. The glam rock era died for a reason.
erms it's still a no for me. it's just too oldish? for my current style
I don't like it. I don't like most of the 80s trends that are coming back. =\
I hate shoulder pads
NO NO NO.
Runway is NOT football practice!
I already have broad shoulders so... no thanks.
dislike.
i wouldn't wear it. my shoulders already stick out.
it's not for me.
I saw this new fad also in Cosmo and groaned... I do like some 80s styles, but shoulder pads are definitely out... They should stay in the past where they belong.
nooooooooooooooooooooooo.
urgh I hate shoulder pads!! they make me feel like an old lady
ugh. they're supposed to flatter my body shape, but i wouldn't wear them
i don't like it also. i like what i have already on my body.
I generally hate shoulder pads, but I guess it just depends on how they're used? Dresses with shoulder pads are gross though.
I'm all for the return of the shoulderpad, because the newer ones don't have the linebacker look of the 80s.
i think once high fashion translates into something wearable for the rest of us humble folk, it will begin to look cute. shoot, i thought military jackets on the runway were one of the strangest creations made, but hey, forever 21 makes some pretty damn cute ones. im not going to say no right away (though i dont particularly like it) because i think in a year or two when the trend hits, everyone will start to like them. just look at the ugg revolution!
Everybody needs to stay away from these.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
i think they're yucky, but i also used to think that skinny jeans and high waisted skirts were ugly, and look what we're wearing now. i'm sure if everyone starts wearing shoulder pads, they won't be so ugly anymore.
@e_L_a_I_n_e_Y@xanga - true that.
I HATE SHOULDER PADS THEY WILL NEVER BE CUTE!
I don't think having the look of broad shoulders could flatter any body type. Not cute!
shoulder pads = puke
i vote no
no thank you.
