Let's do the fashion time warp! Stacy London and Clinton Kelly revisit The Rocky Horror Picture Show—and the iconic Tim Curry looks that were decades ahead of their time.

In honor of Tim Curry's passing, we're celebrating the extraordinary talent, fearless glamour, and unforgettable performance he brought to Dr. Frank-N-Furter. From that legendary makeup to his commanding presence in heels, this episode is a love letter to a performer who made being different look fabulous.

Inspired by a recent trip to Broadway's The Rocky Horror Show starring Luke Evans and Rachel Dratch, Clinton and Stacy return to the original 1975 cult classic to ask: Why does so much of this fashion look straight out of the '80s?

They break down Frank-N-Furter's glossy lips, dramatic eye makeup, pearls, and glitter; Columbia's scene-stealing sequins; and the contrast between Brad and Janet's buttoned-up style and the castle's anything-goes glamour. Plus: leather jackets from the future, silver space suits, and a spirited debate over who wore it best.

When a 1989 cult classic uses fashion as a weapon, the results are unforgettable. Stacy London and Clinton Kelly break down every major look from Heathers, revealing how costume design creates hierarchy, symbolism, and dark comedy.

Hosted by Stacy London and Clinton Kelly, Why'd They Wear That? examines the fashion choices in iconic films and TV shows. In this episode, they explore 15 looks from the 1989 film Heathers, discussing how the costume designer used color symbolism (red for power, green for envy, yellow for cowardice) to establish character roles. They analyze exaggerated shoulder pads, the red scrunchie as a power symbol, unconventional fabric choices, and why the hyper-real color palette gives the film its fable-like, satirical tone. The hosts also debate whether these looks were actually worn in 1980s high schools or if they're purely theatrical fantasy.

From the three Heathers' signature looks to Winona Ryder's best outfits, this episode breaks down why Heathers' fashion still holds up today. Subscribe for more deep dives into your favorite movies and shows.

In this episode of Why'd They Wear That?, Stacy London and Clinton Kelly head back to 1982 with Fast Times at Ridgemont High, breaking down the very real high school fashion that helped define the era. From Jeff Spicoli's short shorts, layered Izod shirts, checkered Vans, Baja hoodies, and vintage tapestry jacket to the preppy looks, denim, bandanas, and lingering '70s influence seen throughout Ridgemont High, they explore what teenagers were actually wearing before the excess of the '80s fully took over.

They also compare the deliberately different styles of Jennifer Jason Leigh's Stacy and Phoebe Cates' Linda, revisit the Pat Benatar-inspired girls roaming the halls, and admire Mike Damone's surprisingly stylish short shorts and windbreaker. And, of course, they return to Phoebe Cates' unforgettable red bikini — a movie moment that became a pop-culture phenomenon.

Then Stacy and Clinton turn their attention to one of the movie's most underrated fashion stories: the truly outrageous service-industry uniforms of the early '80s. From Perry's Pizza's candy-striper-inspired aprons and Brad Hamilton's humiliating pirate uniform, they play a round of "Would You Rather?"

Along the way, they talk mall culture, Stacy's Pat Benatar phase, Clinton's singing-waiter days, the return of short shorts, why '80s movies look very different through a modern lens, and which decades of fashion they'd happily bring back.

In this episode of Why'd They Wear That?, Stacy London and Clinton Kelly dive into the gloriously excessive fashion of Overboard, starting with Goldie Hawn's unforgettable yacht wardrobe. From enormous nautical shoulders and diamond brooches in her hair to ultra-high-cut swimsuits, black-and-white prints, silver lamé robes, and perfectly coordinated accessories, Joanna's early looks are pure 1987 extravagance.

They also obsess over Katherine Helmond's wildly maximalist Edith Mintz, whose wardrobe includes huge shoulders, dramatic collars, gold lamé, fascinators, and even matching accessories for her dog, Shiitake. Once Joanna loses her memory, the fashion shifts dramatically into softer hair, minimal makeup, chambray shirts, and a much more relaxed suburban look - giving Stacy and Clinton plenty to discuss about how costume helps track her changing identity.

Along the way, they debate velvet on a yacht, the practicality of extremely high-cut bathing suits, diamond brooches as hair accessories, spray-tan disasters from the What Not to Wear days, and whether Overboard might be one of the most perfectly costumed comedies of the '80s.

In this episode of Why'd They Wear That?, Stacy London and Clinton Kelly celebrate Cher with a countdown of their ten favorite movie looks from across her career. From the stripped-down khakis and gray sweatshirt of Silkwood to the wine-colored beret and overcoat of Suspect, they look at how Cher can make even the simplest costume feel unmistakably like her.

The countdown moves through the bedazzled showgirl glamour of Burlesque, the pearls, hats, fur, and exaggerated brows of Tea with Mussolini, and two memorable looks from Mermaids - including a pink polka-dot dress and an impossibly chic black-and-white cropped-pant look. Along the way, Stacy and Clinton talk about why certain colors, proportions, hats, and silhouettes work so perfectly on Cher.

The top of the list belongs to some of Cher's most memorable film fashion, including her relaxed artist wardrobe and dramatic evening looks in The Witches of Eastwick, plus an iconic Moonstruck moment that proves even a walk of shame can look impossibly glamorous when Cher is doing it.
