the worst (in fashion) that i remember of the 80's is the bat style suits; i don't know how they were actually named.
my skin at the time used to glow under UV fluorescent lighting.
working in photolabs, i sometimes had to put my hands in the stabilizing bath for photo paper processing; the chemicals included some "brightening agents" so the photo whites would look whiter.
when i would go in a place where there were UV fluorescent lights, my hands and arms and jeans would glow bright green in the dark, because sometimes i would dry my hands on my jeans and i would forget to wash before leaving work.
i would love to see if today's super white teeth would do the same under UV lighting.
