Rodarte Fall 2012; Gaby Hoffman in Strike!

Last weekend I hit the Netflix jackpot when I discovered that the 1998 teen flick 
Strike! was stream-able. There’s no denying that the golden age of teen comedies was in the ’90s. I would get together with my girlfriends for sleepovers and we’d watch 
Now and Then
Can’t Hardly Wait, Clueless and 
She’s All That over and over again until we could recite the dialogue word for word. So naturally, I was curious to see how this staple ’90s flick would hold up 14 years later. (Side note—14 years? How did that happen?)
Strike!—which was later renamed 
All I Wanna Do for a reason unbeknownst to me
takes place in the 1960s and stars quintessential ’90s cool kids Kristen Dunst, Gaby Hoffman, and Rachael Leigh Cook. When their all-girls school threatens to go co-ed, the girls concoct a plan to keep the boys away. So let’s talk about the fashion. What really struck me was how everything the girls wear in the movies is, to this very day, still so chic it could be ripped right off the fall runways.
