I love Ellie time! First she wears her hair in twisty half pigtails, a red long sleeve with a black vest, and of course tons of jewelry and makeup. Then in the next scene, I like to imagine she is repurposing some clothes from when she was younger and dressed like a normie – she’s got this printed silky yellow and pink top, over a mesh long sleeve and under a black tank. She’s also got a grommet belt and black pants. And frosty frosty eyeshadow, as you do in the 2000s. I love how elaborate her looks are. Meanwhile people like Snake, Sean, and Craig literally just put on a plain tee.

Degrassi’s apparent heartthrob Craig is the star of the episode because he has an iconic date with Manny. First up is fantasy Craig wearing a suit or a tux – honestly not quite sure how to spot the difference on this one. Next he’s wearing like, a weird mauve colored shirt open over a white tee, flirting on Ashley SO hard. His date outfit is dark slacks, a blue shirt, and I think some kind of suede jacket. And then he wears a rusty brown tee the next school day, contemplating the whole disaster of a date he had.

Toby is just walkin around, arms dangling, hands always concealed under oversized long sleeves, hair parted down the middle, no real color to the wardrobe. BUT we get a nice break from Toby not wearing or doing anything interesting – here he is dressed as a panther.

We are still exploring awkward adolescence through the eyes of Emma, with minor assistance from Manny. This is the episode where Emma goes on a date with Sean. Man these were hard times. I mean, I wasn’t exactly allowed to go on DATES at age 12 myself but, ya know, my parents would like drive me to the school dance where I had a “date” with an equally shy and awkward boy. My god. The little photo they take before the date – so relatable. I’m in pain. So these pictures are out of order in the post, but first we have Emma in a nice 3/4 sleeve top and khakis. We don’t really like, wear khakis recreationally anymore do we? I don’t think anyone just puts on khakis to go with their outfits these days. Correct me if I’m wrong. I remember wearing them and I remember them really not being the most comfortable or practical. Her hair is crimped AND curled under and the wears a plastic chunky watch. Oh yeah and she has a reddish zip up hoodie too. Then we have a couple of shots of her in her dorky little gym outfit. Ugh, we all deserve an award for surviving junior high. Then it’s time for the date! Looks like she fluffed up her hair a bit to get ready. And as you may remember, we get two outfits because a bird shat on her first one. First is the blue shirt with black zip up sweater. Then she switches to a red shirt and overalls. Like, I don’t know why she’s worried about her outfit, because she just looks like she’s ready for her first day of kindergarten, definitely not gonna be seducing anyone tonight. And lastly, she gazes at Sean in her tan velour zip up and STILL crimped hair.

So until now Ashley’s hair has been flipped under, but it looks like she’s trying something new and flipping it out instead! I remember wishing my hair would flip out, but it’s pretty fine and I could never get it to cooperate. She’s wearing her 3/4 sleeve lilac colored polo, some kind of khakis, hoop earrings, and a puka shell necklace. The next day she wears a dark grey long sleeve collared shirt, and Spinner puts bugs in her lunch.

Paige plays a big role in this episode. You know what? It’s almost as if, Paige represents the PERIOD ITSELF. It’s glamorous, mature, and womanly, a beautiful example of growing up and rising to womanhood. But it’s also harsh and painful and embarrassing and will call you out in public. Paige is a hard reality, just like puberty. So, first she is wearing these rimless blue sunglasses, hoop earrings, and her blue fur jacket. Then she busts in on Emma in the bathroom staring at her blood stained skirt. Paige herself is wearing an all-black ensemble, a black 3/4-length sleeve top and a black pencil skirt complete with frosty blue eyeshadow and a braided headband. She is kind enough to offer a pad, a few words of period advice, and a heads up about the boobs coming. Then, she signs Emma’s petition, again in the blue fur jacket, with new rimless sunglasses, and an orange tee.

The contrast between grade 7 and grade 8 is amazing. While Ashley is ready to go to pound town with Jimmy, Emma is still sporting pigtails and dolphin pants. THREE pigtails to be exact. Anyway, let’s start from the beginning here. First, Emma in a yellow and orange tie-dye tee. THEN is the three pigtails, the best thing ever, and her famous famous dolphin pants. In case you didn’t know already, these dolphin pants are legendary, iconic, one of Degrassi’s most famous garments. She wears a plain blue shirt so as not to distract from the pants themselves. Then, she wears three pigtails AGAIN, with jeans, a jean jacket, and a peachy tee. One time, I wore three pigtails. I think I was in kindergarten. My mom recalls the story. She said one day I woke up for school and insisted on three pigtails; nothing else would do. So, I feel ya, Emma. It’s a look.
