Like Emma, Manny is also wearing a tee with that baseball style seam at the shoulder. Her top is purple and black and seems to  have little stars and such all over it. She wears them with jeans and some kind of twisty ponytail. Outside she wears a blue jacket to get her tarot read, which of course reveals she’s doomed. Shortly after she twists her ankle. She still look cute though, in this pink sweater of many shades. And she of course gets to switch her cabaret role from panther to hunter, so here she is in all flannel, what panther hunters wear.

Liberty is giving us the announcement about Lunchtime Cabaret in this jean jacket over what looks like a colorblock tee. But what we really care about is this full circus ringleader tuxedo thing which she freaking wears with the red cowboy boots which I just noticed. Ugh like, the way she tips her little hat as she announces people, I like hate it but I love it. She’s so cringey but in the most necessary way, ya feel me?

JT’s purpose this episode is basically to look on as Toby agrees to be a dancing panther for Emma’s cabaret performance. First he’s looking way cooler than he is in this chain, which he wears with a red jacket and red pants, then he wears a hoodie with like, the Burger King kids club on it, and a backwards cap.

Jimmy isn’t seen much this episode, save for this one instance of him laughing his butt off at Emma’s performance. He wears the usual, a dark long sleeve sweater.

Our B plot today involves Emma wanting to speak for the panthers with an interpretive dance at the lunchtime cabaret. But luck is really not on her side for this. First she can’t get a dude to participate, and then when she finally does, Manny twists her ankle. When the show goes on anyway, everyone laughs. Rough time. Anyway we kick off with a purple shirt, kind of baseball tee style, and the sleeves have horizontal striping. Next is her dance practice outfit – looks like an all black getup with a pink tiefront sweater. And a look of disgust for Toby’s inadequacy. Finally, at the cabaret, she wears all black, complete with a tail, gloves, and a panther nose.

We’ve begun a new episode! How sad that we usually start with Ashley but then have to end with Toby? Sad fashion-wise at least. I’m sorry but these Degrassi boys don’t dress very interestingly right now (except for JT). So Cabaret is a super fun episode, I’m looking forward to getting into this. First, we don’t have to miss out on Ashley’s mushroom hair, as she wears it half down to play her funeral dirge for Terri and encourage her to sing along. Then she wears a lavender 3/4 sleeve polo thing, and it looks like her hair is pulled into a half ponytail and then full ponytail, you know what I’m talking about? I don’t know if there’s a name for that. Next, I friggin love Ash in red. She wears a red cowlneck sweater, a black miniskirt, and boots. Finally, she confronts “Paige and Terri” the band in an almost floor length denim jacket and hoop earrings.

So first is this babe that Toby is giving away some electronics to. I literally had a sweater just like this. Fleece was all the rage, and I think I actually had a couple of these fleece v-neck sweaters. Next I wanted to capture not only the flare jeans, but the way they are torn up at the bottom. That was inevitable because your pants had better be too long WAY before too short. Flooding pants was the ultimate laughing stock. Also note that the shoes, well, they’re not important. I remember there not being too much emphasis on shoes. Maybe that’s because we were all in middle school and to a certain degree had to work with what we could get. But you know, random chunky tennis shoes usually completed the outfit. I do have to give a shoutout to some of the shoes that would appear in the 2000s, such as Birkenstock clogs, Wallabies, and Sperrys. And skate shoes like Etnies or DCs. But if not any of those, tennis shoes sufficed. Next is a preview of possible cheerleading uniforms. And then a couple of group shots of onlookers. I see another v-neck fleece sweater, a hoodie, a visor, a chain, spiked hair, and a turtleneck, amongst other things.
