style odyssey : what is the first thing that comes in your mind at the hearing of the word 80’s?Irini Karayannopoulou :Sequins! The more they shine the better. They are everywhere, in different colors, shapes and ways, they are moving, they are shaking, they are talking and they come in heavy doses.
