There's a whole lot of retro ferocity being dished up within '80s Child' in the WWD Accessories Fall 2009 issue. Alexis Bledel (of "Gilmore Girls" fame, if you're keeping track) models a series of rockin' 80s fashions for the spread, like red leather gloves paired with a sweetheart-neck minidress, a military-inspired leather cap with a frilly skirt and a leather jacket accentuated with a silvery bow hair barrette.
As an authentic '80s Child,' I love this WWD Accessories Fall 2009 editorial.
