Nanny Fine's worst outfit


Fran usually wore pretty over the top outfits but my vote for the all time WORST outfit she wore on the show was the suit that looked like a brick wall..and it had the nerve to have a matching hat??!!

ROFL I was thinking the same thing the other day!! What was up with that brick wall thing!! Seriously, about half of the outfits were cute in a trampy way (a few were just cute without being too trampy, though), but some of them were kinda... weird. It always annoyed me when she went to a special event and still dressed trashy. I know she's supposed to be kind of tacky, but still, she was around CC everyday, wouldn't some of it rub off on her if she was trying to impress a classy dude like Mr. Sheffield?

I loved the Black jacket and Pants suit that had red flames.. in episode Mommy and Mai and the Black piano skirt she wore in You Bette Your Life.. alot of the early episode i dislike alot of the things she wears but the later episode i like alot of the things she wear.. i like when she matches everything...

LOL, I dunno...I have to say that I'm a big fan of Fran's colorful, fabulous fashion sense (it's not all that different from my own!), and I can't really think of anything she wore off-hand that I really disliked. Some of her outfits were better than others, and they did tend to be rather eccentric and unusual (typically in a good way, I thought.) Her brick wall suit and hat--ahhhaaha, okay, that may have been a little much. BUT, hey, it would go with my brick wall trouser socks...xD

I specifically remember an anchrowoman wearing the exact same suit!

But as the philosopher Jagger once said, "You can't always get what you want".

Lol I read the title and was about to write the same thing: Brick wall. Especially this:

"and it had the nerve to have a matching hat??!!"

Even though she had many interesting outfits, that one stood out the most to me. She usually made the other outfits look decent, but this one just didn't work for me.

For sure has to be the fluro orange latex jumpsuit she wore in season 4 when her and Sylvia were held hostage at the bank- HANDS DOWN!!

Do guys like "the thing"?
They like it better than no thing.

reply

Yeah I hated that one. That orange latex jumpsuit had me craving an orange or orange sherbert...lol.

I hated everything she wore and it's crazy that she would be allowed to wear such short, tight clothes as a nanny. But I loved her and the show. Still watch the reruns.

I just watched the episode where Fredia gets married to Fred. Fran had on that one Navy or Pilot uniform it was ugly how she was wearing.

reply

OMG, all those outfits were pretty awful, but somehow she made a lot of them work (and btw, the jeans she wore were totally the 90s style, with high waist - Maggie wore the same style - and so did I, lol)

Didn't she have a jacket/blazer with candy bar wrappings as the print?? I'm not sure, but I think that it was in the episode when she and Sylvia were planning the wedding and went to test wedding cakes or met up with Whoopi Goldberg, who played a photographer (???) She once played herself, but in this epi she didn't.
