It's time for the Diablo Cody penned, Karyn Kusama directed demonic high school film that celebrated it's 10th anniversary this year (and finally started getting the respect it deserves)Jennifer's Body! Costume designer Katia Stano was able to authentically balance looks between mall to man-eater with a dash of MySpace era band boy. So, toss on your favorite GAP sweats and give Jennifer's Body another watch.

Always Be My Maybe
Costume designer Leesa Evans dressed this cast impeccably. From classic '90s to chic restaurateur to freaking KEANU this movie has some great looks...and KEANU. Ali Wong and Randall Park wrote and star in one of the best Bay Area rom-coms. #Vice Breaker *We also forgot Add To Cart! We both added Sasha Tran/Ali Wong inspired Fashion Reading Glasses: https://amzn.to/2O0z5Dd

Troop Beverly Hills
We're in agreement that this film has it all. Theadora Van Runkle was the costume designer responsible for taking risks with Phyllis Nefler's over the top '80s Rodeo Drive socialite fashion and creating looks we're still talking about 30 years later! We've found our official FishnetFlix mascot film and it's Troop Beverly Hills!

Boomerang
Was Boomerang the first rom-com with an all black cast and crew? We know it has a phenomenal soundtrack and all of the looks that costume designer Francine Jamison-Tanchuck created were très magnifique! *Strangé voice* Boomerang is not only worth the watch but worth the $ of a purchase/rental.
