12 Clueless Outfits That Are Still Relevant
It's hard to believe that Clueless hit theaters more than 20 years ago, especially since all of those fashion moments are just as relevant today as they were back in 1995. Cher Horowitz (played by Alicia Silverstone) might have been clueless when it came to love, but she was definitely not in the fashion department.
As a style salute to the film (and to prepare for a chic Halloween), we took a throwback look at her iconic fashion moments, from her "most capable" driving outfit to her famous white body-hugging Calvin Klein dress. Reminisce with us and take a look at the best 12 fashion moments from the film — as if you'd do anything else!
