Sandy was a really pretty and cute girl, but at the end they decided to give her a makeover to look like a complete hooker and then suddenly everyone is like OMFG she's hot. Does anyone here actually prefer her looks at the end?
Even in the 70s, Sandy’s tight pants at the end were a shocker. No one had seen pants like that before. They became a new fashion item for fit women who could pull off a glitzy, shiny pants look. They were for dressed-up occasions, like clubbing. But they weren’t snug at the ankle like Sandy’s.
One star I recall wearing them, post-Grease, was Raquel Welch while performing on a tv program. Hers were shiny, like Sandy’s, but not tight around the ankle. And not black. I think they were bronze, or maybe copper.
