Fake Designer Bags and Y2K Slogan Tees in Mean Girls (2004)

The girls have gone wild! Beauty editor and on-camera expert Marianne Mychaskiw joins us for Mean Girls! We discuss Mary Jane Fort's legendary costume design choices for the Plastics, including literally plastic PVC skirts, butterfly bra clips, and slogan tees. We trauma bond over the mall clothing store 5-7-9, go deep into the evolution of fake designer bags, and Blaire brings out her Mean Girls promotion merch: a nail file! Other topics include all the Mean Girls boys coming out as gay, IRL Kevin G's lifestyle channel, Joomi Joolz tees, bringing back bedazzled bra straps (AGAIN), visible thongs, "the height of Paris Hilton Pink," what we want to Add2Cart, and Cady's suspected zodiac sign for our Cosmic Costumes segment.  Sources and further reading/shopping: Marie's interview with Mary Jane Fort on Nylon (2019) Rajiv Surendra (Kevin G) Instagram The Burn Cookbook: An Unofficial Unauthorized Cookbook for Mean Girls Fans by Jonathan Bennet A Little Bit Dramatic Tank Top Cady Dress replica from Underground Costumes Follow Marianne on Instagram For visuals of the costumes, follow us on: Instagram at @makeovermontagepodcast TikTok @makeovermontagepodcast.
