I can not tell you the number of times I have sat on the sofa and struggled to find a good film to pass the time. We all have had to wallow in this tedious task but we also all have that one go-to, that one classic that we have watched thousands of times but it never seems to get old. Whenever this happens to me I always know the 1990 film ‘Pretty Women’ is one I can rely on. It is a beautiful and modern twist on Cinderella where two worlds collide in a love story that never gets old. I can't count the number of times I have watched this particular film or forced anyone who tells me they haven't to do so. After watching this a few times, I came to realise the mesmerising and stylish outfits of Julia Roberts that are still around today.
Over the Knee Boots
These statement boots have been around forever and Julia Roberts character Vivian Ward is pretty much the reason behind the term ‘hooker boots’. Her elegant yet sexy outfits with these particular boots should remind women everywhere that the right footwear can turn any outfit into a statement.
Oversized Jackets and Baker Boy hats
It's not unknown that oversized anything today is what everyone is going crazy for. Oversized jumpers, jeans, t-shirts, you name it everyone has at least one piece in their wardrobe. Hats also came back into fashion not that long ago and the all-important statement baker boy hat is all the rage. It is cute, fashionable, quirky and perfect for them bad hair days.
Round sunglasses
Sunglass trends change every summer but one that has stayed high in the fashionista scale is round sunglasses. They suit any face shape and Vivian Ward showed us that they can give even a conservative outfit a bit of edge and mystery.
Cut out dress
Like a lot of fashion items, people will say the Kardashian sisters put them into trend. For this one I will argue with anyone who doesn't believe it was the iconic dress that Vivian Ward wore when she first met her knight in a polished suit. This particular dress is seen everywhere from red carpet events to high street stores. It brings out your curves and turns that simple dress into something that will definitely be a show stopper. This particular outfit choice by Vivian Ward within the film is iconic and is the one outfit that anyone will remember from the film.
That little black dress
Everyone owns that all-important black dress. It is a fashion statement that has never seemed to die, it is every woman's go-to. The moment within the film when Edward Lewis sees Vivian Ward sitting so glamorously at the bar is one of the best scenes and always wins my heart. A shiny cocktail style dress never goes unnoticed and is never underwhelming or too overwhelming.
