Carbon Costume 1980s
Richard Simmons
Richard Simmons is best known for his aerobic video series “Sweatin’ to the Oldies”. It’s hard to tell what’s more eccentric, his personality or his choice of workout gear.
Robin Sparkles
Canadian popstar, Robin Sparkles, was most well known for her hits “Let’s Go to the Mall” and “Sandcastles in the Sand”. The pressures of stardom got to her though when she had a meltdown on live TV with the debut of Robbin Daggers and “P.S. I Love You”, her ode to long time crush Paul Shaffer.
Fred Savage in The Wizard
Fred Savage as Corey Woods co-stars with Rilo Kiley in The Wizard, a 100-minute Nintendo commercial for Super Mario Bros 3 and the Power Glove. I love this outfit. It’s so bad.
Ernest P. Worrell
Ernest P. Worrell, better known as Ernest Goes To…, is a bumbling but good-natured handyman. He was so popular in the 80’s that he was able to cross over from local TV commercials to a franchise spanning 10 films. It’s not too hard to replicate his outfit, but that face is another story. Knowhutimean?
E.T. and Elliott
It’s Halloween 1982, and Elliott’s on a mission to get E.T. back to his home planet. His alien buddy may be a nudist, but that doesn’t mean he shouldn’t bundle up for his epic bike ride.
