sizism of the shoulder sort

In the 80’s I used to cut the shoulderpads out from new clothes.  This fashion-subversive act enabled me to avoid looking like a cast extra from Dynasty, Falconcrest, Dallas, or an aspiring  USA football team member.   

Apparantly the shoulder-pad look is returning.  There are rumours that The John Lewis Partnership (JLP) haberdashery department has recently sold-out of shoulder pads.  

I didn’t purchase them.
