Fashion in Film: Mean Girls



Who could forget this iconic film released in 2004. Mean girls became a instant classic when it came out. Not only for its humor but also for the costumes that were so fetch. The costume designer for the movie was Mary Jane Font. Font tried to make the costumes as accurate as possible. She also took inspiration from classic 50s high school looks. Mixing modern with the past for these costumes. Here is how you can get the Plastics looks:




This is the most recognizable outfits for the plastics. These of course are there on Wednesdays we wear pink looks. It is also the first time Cady is hanging out with them.
