TO celebrate London Fashion Week sashaying back to the capital next month (February 17-21) we’ve rifled through our archives to bring you these nostalgic fashion photos form the eighties and early nineties - check out the amazing perms.

There are four major fashion capitals -New York, London, Milan, and Paris and each city holds fashion shows twice a year.

The first ever London Fashion Week took place in 1984.

Those who like to stay in vogue may be surprised to hear the earliest fashion magazine was published all the way back in 1672. Called Le Mercure Galant, the magazine began to regularly offer comment on the latest clothing styles throughout Europe.
