I guess we should appreciate these tired outfits while we can because I think Joey’s wardrobe gets a bit of a revamp in Degrassi High. For the time being, enjoy this red Hawaiian shirt + fedora that we’ve seen like 50 times, with skinny jeans and white shoes.

Oh, and here’s the same hat with that one yellow and black Hawaiian shirt. Gotta appreciate, as always, the realistic repetitiveness of everyone’s wardrobe. But I’m not too big on Joey in this episode.

And here’s Joey wearing the same hat a third time, to the dance, with this super hilarious tuxedo tee because he’s such a funny guy.

And finally, Joey’s wearing the red hat AGAIN with a green Hawaiian shirt and jean vest. Trying to understand why Caitlin thinks he’s a jerk. Get with it, Joey.

BLT is sporting a black and white striped polo with those like fluffy sleeves. I don’t know what the term for that is. But my college sorority used to wear jerseys with fluffy sleeves like that.

Funny that this is the picture I screenshotted, because I recently coined the term “manspread” (or at least I think I did). What’s manspread, you ask? It’s where a man feels the need to spread his knees and elbows as far apart as possible, especially when in venue or airplane seating, infringing upon other people’s personal space. Obviously, BLT’s manspread is not invasive here, so no hate to BLT. But here he is, manspreading, in a white tank, acid wash jeans, and white runners. And I guess a gold necklace with a horse on it?

Here’s what BLT wears to the dance with Alexa. It’s super cute and sporty – color block v-neck tee of red, white, and black.

Joey is usual old Joey with white tennies, Hawaiian shirts, and fedoras, but he is sans jean jacket today, so I guess that’s mixing things up a bit, right?

Joey does NOT dress up for dances, but boy does he clean up for a funeral! So refreshing to see him without something obnoxious on.

Then of course is a variety of Hawaiian shirts, fedoras, and the jean vest. We did get a nice peep at his white Pumas though!

This is Wheels’s episode, and just the beginning of his misfortunes. But no matter how bad things get, he never withholds from us his mullet, glasses, and right pants.

The first ensemble we see is a nice teal blue sweatshirt with some black pants.

Then, a favorite of mine, is the denim on denim. Not just any denim, but light denim. And complete with the white runners, it’s an 80s dream.

Tim sports this taupey-brown button down and khakis on the left, and then he helps Nancy run her campaign in black slacks and a white button down, completed with white tennies.

PS – I think I’m spelling Tim’s last name wrong. And eventually I’m going to go back and correct it all!

Oh, little Tessa, you have such negative associations. But you were just a cute little kid back in the days of DJH, so that’s what we are gonna focus on for now.

First off we see Tessa in this fantastic oversized sweater of red and yellow under a white turtleneck, with dark leggins and white runners.

Then we get another large sweater + turtleneck, this time in teal, paired with green khakis and white runners again.

LD is looking cute and could likely pass for cute right now in this blue oversized shirt, jean skirt (which are BACK in style finally!), and white runners! *An IG friend told me that in those days, white “tennies” were called white “runners”!

Wow, we get a ton of new characters this season! So yeah,  here’s the incredibly boring and irrelevant Bartholomew Bond whose biggest plotline in the show is about sea monkeys. He starts his Degrassi career with a yellow suitcase, a blue button down, black slacks, and white tennies.
