Rose Mcgowan's Top 7 Iconic Outfits To Fuel Our Nostalgia
When McGowan showed up to the VMAs in 1998 wearing a "naked dress," she grabbed attention. She has since explained, in an interview with Jameela Jamil for her I Weigh series, that the garment was meant to convey a very precise message after the alleged assault by Harvey Weinstein. The Jawbreaker star really put her statement in the boldest way possible.
After fifteen years after the release of the gruesome adolescent thriller Jawbreaker, we felt it only fitting to honor Rose's most well-known characters, including the sexy speed freak and the go-go dancer turned zombie murderer.
This list has fetishistic clothing in the ultimate Tarantino cartoon-gore movie "Death Proof" or as the queen of cult '90s adolescent films, Tatum Riley in Wes Craven's teen horror, Scream, Courtney Shayne in Darren Stein's Jawbreaker, Amy Blue in The Doom Generation, and many more stylish characters served to stoke our nostalgia. It consists of Rose McGowan's most recognizable looks from both on and off the screen. See below for our best selections.
Stein enlisted the help of Clueless costumier Vikki Barrett to create the distinctive look of the movie's mean girls, "The Flawless Four." Barrett designed a wardrobe that reflected the "innocence of the 50s juxtaposed with femme fatales of the 20s, and punk and fetish looks from the late 70s and early 80s." Corsets, rubber pencil skirts, classic heels, argyle sweater vests, and monochrome outfits fusing 1950s twinsets with 1990s miniskirts were all part of Rose's Courtney's sugar-and-spice style.
