Fashion Flashback: The 80’s with Ben-Amun

Taking a cue from Good Morning America, we’ve decided that there’s no better way to make a regular fall week a fabulous fashion flashback than to deem it “Totally 80’s” and harken back to yesteryear. So, harken back with us here at Ben-Amun, and let some of our favorite editorial memories inspire you to add some 80’s to tomorrow’s outfit.

While most people will happily concede that they “heart” the 80’s, there are those of us whose love for that vibrant era is larger than average. We are 80’s enthusiasts, and we are this way for a reason.

Ben-Amun jewelry first appeared on the cover of Vogue in January, 1980, and went on to appear on ten more of Vogue’s twelve 1980 covers. It was an exciting way to start a decade, and marked the moment when Ben-Amun burst onto the fashion scene. So, in honor of 80’s week, we’ve decided to take a look back at Ben-Amun’s younger years.
