Some women did dress/look how Julia does in the '80s
Guarantee it.
They may not have been MTV fashionable, but it happened.

Julia was gorgeous.
shareAll of her clothes were actually from the 80's. The costume designer went to thrift shops to find all of them. So of course there were people who dressed like that.
"Oh my God! You put a living room where the crack den used to be!"
I think that's a lie. Those cardigans did not look 80s and certainly not like 1985. People would also not combine items the way she did. I don't think it's just a coincidence that she's the only one from the cast who doesn't look authentic.
shareI disagree. My mom used to have clothes made for me as a kid that looked very similar to Julia's clothes. She got all these ideas from fashion magazines. I was born in 1980 btw.
Although paring them with black military boots is very 90s. And most of her clothes are very 90s friendly.
Well, I was a kid in the 80s and my mom made most of my clothes and nothing looked anything like what Julia wore.
Not that it matters, since Julia was an adult woman and would wear different kinds of things than us kids. Those cardigans didn't look 80s whatsoever. They were a mid to late 90s fashion trend with a throwback to the 60s. 80s Cardigans were huge, much like anything else. Could you point out what clothing item looked 80s to you? I think only the denim jacket could pass for something from the late 80s. Of course, the rest of her outfit makes no sense.
Her pink dress with the flowers at the bottom paired with the black jacket with pink flowers on it. As for cardigans, I believe Molly Ringwald wore a cardigan in Pretty In Pink.
True about kids wearing diff outfits than adults but my mom was a fashionista! Many of my clothes were mini adult clothes or clothes adults could wear just with flat shoes. I had a similar dress as her green horizontal striped, I had many balloon 50s type of dresses and skirts btw. That was also very 80s IMO, I had a sister who was 15 years older than me that had a similar type she wore for her prom or such event. But it was more beautiful, in fact you can wear that dress today and you'd be the envy. It was simple but very elegant. Very 1950s reminiscent. A lot of 80s fashion also emulated 50s fashion.
I actually thought that was such a 90s look. Especially with the dress and the necklace and the hair.
Do you mean this cardigan?

It's not typically 80s huge, but it's a different style. Short, but still a bit of a loose fit and those glittery flowers are very 80s, as is the rest of her outfit.
If Julia's fashion style had been 50s style balloon skirts, I would definitely have agreed she was dressed according to a trend at the time. I did love that style, just like the 60s revival in the 90s.
I think the red-and-white polka dotted dress looked a bit 80s, but again, the rest of her look was just off.
Yeah? A lot of her clothes also fit in the 90s but like another poster said, they are all from the 80s and my sister and I had similar clothes and she was a teen in the 80s.
And regardless if her cardigan has a flower or is plain, the point made is cardigans were worn in the 80s.
Huh? I never said cardigans weren't worn in the 80s. She wears several other cardigans in the movie and the point was that they don't look 80s whatsoever, but rather like the cardigans that were in fashion when the movie was made. Same for the rest of her wardrobe. And like I also said, the way she combines her clothes is even worse, especially those combat boots to create a "grunge" look.
The article did NOT say all of her clothes were from the 80s, so...
No. It's not that she's not fashionable, it's that they didn't sell clothing like that. Stop making up excuses. No hairdresser would style her hair like that either.
shareSo "timeless" means Drew Barrymore's character borrowed Doc Brown's Dolorean to buy clothing items from the future, huh...
shareERA APPROPRIATE PIECES THAT DONT SCREAM THE ERA...THATS ALL.🤔
share"ERA APPROPRIATE PIECES"
Except, no. Maybe two vintage dresses. The rest screams 90s.
LMAO...SAYS YOU..WE ARE ABOUT THE SAME AGE AND I THINK HER WARDROBE IS ACCURATE....AND ALL THE RESEARCH IVE DONE STATES ALL HER PIECES WERE VINTAGE FROM THE ERA....SO....LIKE,WE DISAGREE AND STUFF.🙂
shareThe article only mentions vintage dresses, but she wears lots of other things in the movie. And her remark about a girl like Julia going with a "grungy" look in 1985 makes me LOL...
Wouldn't be the first time we disagree.🤷♀️
I was there. I don't remember anyone looking like that. She looked more 1991-1992 than anything else.
