Gwen Stefani rocks ’80s acid wash, ‘Flashdance’ tops at NY Fashion Week

Gwen Stefani rocks the ’80s at NY Fashion Week

NEW YORK — Gwen Stefani is rocking the ’80s well into 2010, presenting a LAMB collection on Thursday that included off-the-shoulder “Flashdance” tops and acid-wash jeans.

There was a punk vibe to some of the spring season outfits, including studded suspenders attached to the skinniest of skinny black jeans and racy lace tights worn only with a body suit.

However, an animal-print T-shirt dress and a plaid blanket top would be wearable for far more shoppers.

With her street cred as a bona fide rock star and a solid reputation in the fashion world, Stefani can pull off balloon shorts and a one-shoulder T-shirt in a way that many other designers can’t. She also could probably wear the white, cowl neck jumpsuit with harem pants that was shown at the downtown MAC and Milk venue, but that outfit would land most people on a fashion “don’t” list.

To take her bow, Stefani wore black cargo pants and an asymmetrical jacket. Her hair matched the models with a pouf right at the front.
