The 80s photo trend is sweeping social media, dividing stars between those relying on AI and those proud of their authentic archives.
In the past few hours, social media platforms have turned into a visual time machine that takes its users back to the golden era of the 1980s and 1990s.This trend relied on AI technologies that reshaped the features of users and celebrities, bestowing upon them looks that reflect the spirit of that distinctive era, featuring bold colors, voluminous hairstyles, and classic accessories that defined fashion's identity at that time.
This wave was not limited to the audience; it became a broad interaction space for celebrities. Interestingly, this trend has ignited a well-liked artistic division, with stars split into two camps: one dusting off their real memories, while the other embraced the magic of AI algorithms.

The artist Leila Eloui chose to stay away from AI filters, sharing with her audience rare authentic photos from her personal archive during her early artistic career in the 1980s. Meanwhile, artist Issaad Younes humorously joined in by posting a real archival photo of herself, with a sarcastic comment stating that she lived the 1980s in full detail without needing to resort to AI technologies.

On the other hand, a large number of stars, particularly the young generations and comedy stars, found in AI technologies a golden opportunity to imagine themselves in a time frame they did not fully experience.
The participants included artists like Kenda Alloush, Nesreen Tafesh, Mai Selim, and Mena Fadali, who appeared in digitally altered images characterized by 1980s trends, especially breaking color rules, merging sporty and daily wear, stacking jewelry and accessories, and sporting voluminous hairstyles full of volume and life with dense waves and chaotic bangs brushing the eyebrows.
