As well as MOVIE NIGHT. I revisited a perennial favorite, Beetlejuice. I feel like, as a kid, Winona Laura Horowitz' breakout performance as Lydia Deetz was really instrumental to me. I was a goth kid. I wanted to be, as per Lydia "Strange and Unusual". Her layered, lacy outfits and hand-twisted gel-ed ravens-nest bangs were really inspiring to me. But watching it again, I felt much less interest in Lydia than I did in her mom.
MY STYLE ICON IS DELIA DEETZ
"This is my art, and it is dangerous!"
I'm like watching the video, and I realize that Catherine O'Hara, through her clothes, is living my dream. She is a frustrated, postmodern artist with a wardrobe of 1980s Japanese fashion.
I guessed, and was correct, that she wears Mitsuhiro Matsuda, Issey Miyake, Comme des Garçons.
Loves it.
AWESOME BONUS TRIVIA: Catherine O'Hara in real life has a condition called situs inversus viscerum.

HER WARDROBE IN THIS FLICK IMPECCABLE / STRANGE / MAD GOOD.
weeird! i got such a craving to watch beetlejuice on saturday night out of nowhere! obviously, psychic lioness electricity! Great Style icon tho! Those gloves on the head = priceless.
I'm all about the Alpine sweater as pants! I tried to do this with one of Spookyz leopard print shirts in SF, but forbade me from wearing it, so I had to go to the party in high heels, black lipstick and Sharyn Jackson's sheer scarf instead.
