10 Ways Romy and Michele’s Bold Style Is Still Everything
Apr 25, 2017
Twenty years ago today, the cult classic Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion was unleashed unto the world, changing our (and Art Fry, the inventor of Post-Its’) lives forever. Full of hilarious one-liners (“Do you have some sort of… businesswoman special?”), and bold fashion choices that made us sit up and take note, Romy (Mira Sorvino) and Michele (Lisa Kudrow) were pure ‘90s perfection. Today, we’re tipping our hats to the dynamic duo with 10 looks that still hold up — and how you can shop their style. Check out our picks below!

Calling all space cadets: The new-age print of this handmade Lycra dress is all you’ll need to emulate Romy’s Judy Jetson, intergalactic vibes at the big high school reunion. (Photo via Touchstone)
Mango Vinyl Bomber
‘80s vinyl is making a comeback, and we’re not talking records (though those are coming around again too), making Romy’s red vinyl jacket a definite do. Throw it on over a leopard top like she did for a sassy look that will have you saying, “[I’ve] never looked cuter.” (Photo via Touchstone)
Azbro Fashion Bow Tie Denim Miniskirt
Denim miniskirts are also back in a big way (just ask Khloé Kardashian), so a version of Michele’s blue tie-waist mini will have you right on trend. (Photo via Touchstone Pictures)

Tahari ASL Pintucked Peplum Skirt Suit
Wear power red for important moments, like a job interview. At least you’ll look in control, even if you make a major misstep, like insulting your potential employer’s clients as Michele did at Versace. (Photo via Touchstone Pictures)
Forever 21 Bodycon Mini Dress

Queen of Hearts Playing Card Logo Wonderland Crop Top
Romy makes even mundane tasks like laundry look stylish with a little help from a card-print logo crop, and you can score a similar, machine washable (see what we did there?) style for less than $10. (Photo via Touchstone)
GaussHaus Kissing Lips Scarf
If you’re suddenly feeling the urge to start folding scarves after rewatching the film, we’ve got just the pick: This handmade rayon and cotton flannel lip print option is a near dead-ringer for the one Michele wore as a headscarf during the gals’ road trip. (Photo via Touchstone Pictures)
