"  This year, ELLE celebrates its 25th anniversary. Each month, we&amp;#039;ll take you through two full years of the magazine&amp;#039;s rich history with a selection of images from fashion stories, celebrity interviews, beauty spreads, and those oh-so-nostalgic\u2014and neon!\u2014Gitano and Depp Gel ads. First up are 1985 and 1986. It was during these years that &amp;quot;Careless Whisper&amp;quot; by Wham! and &amp;quot;That&amp;#039;s What Friends Are For&amp;quot;by Dionne &amp;amp;amp; Friends were tops on the music chart, respectively, and Molly Ringwald was in the angsty eye of her John Hughes storm. Shoulders were big without irony, past-the-butt sweatshirts and stretch pants were what all the cool girls wore to the mall, and to pair bright white Reebok high-tops with chunky L.A. Gear socks during the office commute was to let the world know just how powerful a professional you were.  Enjoy, and please check back often for the latest online coverage of ELLE&amp;#039;s 25th Anniversary! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
