    Stacy and Clinton Celebrate Catherine O'Hara's Most Iconic Looks

    In this special episode of Why'd They Wear That?, Stacy London and Clinton Kelly celebrate the incomparable Catherine O'Hara with a retrospective of some of their favorite looks from across her career. Rather than ranking them, they each choose three memorable fashion moments that capture her range, humor, beauty, and extraordinary ability to completely transform herself for a character.   They revisit Delia Deetz in Beetlejuice, praising the cinnamon-red hair, immaculate red lip, sculpted brows, winged eyeliner, black mini skirt, and statement earrings that helped make Catherine look simultaneously artistic, severe, and impossibly glamorous. They also return to her wildly different Moira Rose looks from Schitt's Creek, including an all-white ensemble with sculptural hair, gold gloves, religious-iconography-inspired accessories, and the unforgettable pink-champagne red carpet gown from The Crows Have Eyes 3.   Stacy and Clinton also spotlight Catherine's effortlessly cool 1980s New York look in Martin Scorsese's After Hours, complete with double belts, rubber bracelets, a black mini skirt, whistle, tights, and perfectly imperfect blonde hair, as well as Cookie Fleck's gloriously budget-conscious cocktail attire in Best in Show. Finally, they admire her late-career power dressing in The Studio, where rich rust, peach, and gold tones, high-waisted tailoring, dark nails, sunglasses, and brushed-gold jewelry give her the presence of a Hollywood lioness.   More than anything, the episode is a tribute to Catherine O'Hara's ability to disappear into a role while making every character visually unforgettable. From Delia Deetz to Moira Rose, Cookie Fleck, Gail, and beyond, Stacy and Clinton reflect on the joy she brought to audiences and why they feel lucky to have lived in the same lifetime as her.     Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/   About Why'd They Wear That?: A pop-culture and fashion commentary show where Stacy London and Clinton Kelly break down the on-screen looks that sparked trends, started debates and occasionally made audiences ask, "Why'd They Wear THAT?" → https://www.whydtheywearthat.com/   Find out more @  ALL CHEWED UP Channel → https://www.allchewedup.com/

    Stacy and Clinton Break Down the Unhinged Style of Body Double

    In this episode of Why'd They Wear That?, Stacy London and Clinton Kelly revisit Brian De Palma's 1984 thriller Body Double and break down its most outrageous fashion moments across 10 increasingly unhinged scenes. What Stacy remembered as a complicated, psychosexual mystery turns out to be an exploitative, wildly entertaining fever dream involving a struggling actor, a futuristic Hollywood house, a telescope, a nightly lingerie dance, a murder plot, and more questionable male fantasy than either of them was prepared to revisit.   They examine Sam Bouchard's all-polyester acting-class ensemble, Gloria Revelle's rhinestone thong and transparent robe, her polished Beverly Hills shopping look, and the baffling decision to buy new underwear, change into it immediately, and throw the old pair away. They also unpack the movie's signature mid-1980s glamour, including silk jacquard, cinched waists, gold eye shadow, aviators, scarves, vertical blinds, padded shoulders, leopard print, metallic bodysuits, and bags hanging from impossibly thin straps.   When Melanie Griffith finally arrives as adult-film star Holly Body, Stacy and Clinton turn their attention to the movie's leather-filled club scene, assless unitards, studded suspenders, dramatic coats, ear cuffs, pencil skirts, vinyl pants, and one of the longest and least convincing audition sequences ever filmed. Along the way, they question the movie's misogyny, laugh through its supposedly serious thriller scenes, perform Holly's memorable contract monologue, and try to determine whether any of the film's sexual staging is anatomically possible.   Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/   About Why'd They Wear That?: A pop-culture and fashion commentary show where Stacy London and Clinton Kelly break down the on-screen looks that sparked trends, started debates and occasionally made audiences ask, "Why'd They Wear THAT?" → https://www.whydtheywearthat.com/   Find out more @  ALL CHEWED UP Channel → https://www.allchewedup.com/

    Stacy and Clinton Break Down the Costumes of Weapons

    In this episode of Why'd They Wear That?, Stacy London and Clinton Kelly break down 11 looks from Weapons, the horror film in which 17 children mysteriously disappear and nearly every outfit leads back to Amy Madigan's unforgettable Aunt Gladys. From Julia Garner's heart-covered teacher sweater and the principal's carefully layered corduroy, argyle, knitwear, and bow ties to Aunt Gladys's terrifying combination of vintage leisure suits, housecoats, turbans, oversized collars, and aggressively pale makeup, they explore how the costumes reveal character, establish suspicion, and make the movie's strangest figure instantly iconic. Stacy and Clinton devote special attention to costume designer Trish Summerville's styling of Aunt Gladys, whose look combines 1960s and '70s clothing, Victorian-inspired makeup, resin beads, brooches, floral bags, tiny earrings, and barely-there eyebrows. They debate whether she is an ancient witch pulling inspiration from every century she has survived, question why someone trying to secretly perform dark magic would dress so conspicuously, and make the case for bringing back turbans, housecoats, statement necklaces, and the simple instruction to "put a brooch on it." Along the way, they investigate the principal and his partner's matching Disney-gay loungewear, wonder why no adult immediately calls child protective services, critique Aunt Gladys's zinc-oxide complexion, discuss the practical purpose of her tiny braids, and admire her commitment to accessorizing - even while casting a spell in a turban and housecoat.   Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/   About Why'd They Wear That?: A pop-culture and fashion commentary show where Stacy London and Clinton Kelly break down the on-screen looks that sparked trends, started debates and occasionally made audiences ask, "Why'd They Wear THAT?" → https://www.whydtheywearthat.com/   Find out more @  ALL CHEWED UP Channel → https://www.allchewedup.com/

    Stacy and Clinton Break Down the Style of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back

    In this episode of Why'd They Wear That?, Stacy London and Clinton Kelly revisit The Empire Strikes Back and break down the movie's upgraded intergalactic fashion through five of its most memorable characters. From Han Solo's fur-trimmed Hoth gear, perfectly tied scarf, swashbuckling boots, and surprisingly chic cropped jacket to Princess Leia's elaborate braids, padded travel-ready vest, Cloud City dress, and high boots, they unpack how the sequel gave the Star Wars wardrobe a major style evolution.   Along the way, they examine whether Luke Skywalker's highly functional uniforms could survive snow, swamps, combat, and the loss of a hand; investigate the Empire's many military ranks, helmets, masks, knee pads, and suspiciously selective armor protection; and celebrate Lando Calrissian's cape, brocade lining, oversized collar, and machine-washable approach to luxury.   They also make the case that Darth Vader is the Karl Lagerfeld of outer space, question why Yoda cannot use the Force to mend his torn robe, analyze Boba Fett's armor and neck protection, and conclude that the world needs more capes, more men who can tie scarves like Han Solo, and perhaps an inflatable travel vest inspired by Princess Leia.   Camera, Audio and Crew provided by TV Boy → https://tvboynyc.com/   About Why'd They Wear That?: A pop-culture and fashion commentary show where Stacy London and Clinton Kelly break down the on-screen looks that sparked trends, started debates and occasionally made audiences ask, "Why'd They Wear THAT?" → https://www.whydtheywearthat.com/   Find out more @  ALL CHEWED UP Channel → https://www.allchewedup.com/
