« Bonnie & Clyde, And The Films That Inspire Our Real Life Wardrobes
Sex and the City
Not the movie (which we actually found disappointing fashion-wise) but the TV show, especially the early years. Like Lauren said, “She wore some crazy shit,” and while I wasn’t running around Boston in a tutu, Carrie’s often wacky outfits inspired me to get creative when it came to clothes. (Me and a million others, I know.) –Britt

Working Girl
I’m really, really into blazers–particularly those with large shoulder pads. However, I’m not referring to sharp Balmain shoulder pads. I mean the real thing, ala Donna Karan New York circa 1987. Or Melanie Griffith in Working Girl. That is, after she gets a makeover. –Lauren

Reality Bites
I’ll admit it: I loved Lelaina’s doily dress. And her 1950s house dresses. And loafers. And of course, her over-sized men’s trousers. Basically, I’ve been trying to recreate her look since 1994. –Lauren

Breakfast At Tiffany’s
Audrey Hepburn’s Breakfast at Tiffany’s costumes may be simple, but they’re perfect. Forget her iconic black dress, ankle pants and sweatshirts are the perfect combination. And considering the trench she wears at the end, this may be the ideal wardrobe. –Britt

Annie Hall
Sure, this movie influenced legions of women, but I saw it at least 30 years later than most, and Diane Keaton’s wardrobe was open to very different interpretation in the 90s than the 70s. It’s responsible for too many of the shirts–both men’s and women’s–in my closet, as well as the vintage men’s vest I’ll probably never wear. –Britt
