We’ve all had a look. Whether it was platform boots in the ’70s, a neon shell suit in the ’80s, or frosted lip gloss in the early 2000s, we wore it like we meant it. At Zingo Bingo, we think those bold and brilliant fashion moments deserve a runway revival. So we’ve matched each iconic trend with one of our vibrant bingo rooms to give them the stage they deserve.
Let’s take a walk down memory lane and see what we were wearing when we thought we were the coolest person alive.
