CACADOU LOOK – POP GIRLY GIRLS They were popular even before they formed the band- hanging out with bands, dating musicians, wearing flamboyant ‘80s fashion. According to a popular legend, they first grabbed musical instruments when members of the band Fit they were dating at the time had to go to pay they dues to the country in the army. But in spite of starting playing instruments that belonged to their boyfriends, their sound and stage looks were always extremely feminine, so much so that they were considered to be a local version of then globally famous The Bangles. The pretty girls from Rijeka soon became skilled and perfectly rehearsed musicians, perfecting their live sound and diversifying their looks in a tested and tried recipe: two blonds (one with bangs), two brunettes and a red-haired. Cacadou Look disbanded almost simultaneously with the former country, but not before making a huge popular success and a great impact. Never again a girl had to make a choice between a guitar and a mini-skirt, stilettos and perfect make up: she could have it all. (plus the big shoulderpads and even bigger '80s hair)
